Seats have to be swapped in cruise for a long flight that requires a relief pilot.
Well, I still consider myself a "professional". And had a little bit of time as a government-paid triggerman that allowed me to gain a degree of experience with aerodynamics and avionics and.... All in planes that I could not stand up in or walk to the loo ( deference to the Poms) or grab a fresh cup of coffee. So for a good test try sitting in a small chair with oxygen mask on and maybe a relief tube to help, or a box lunch so the crumbs clogged up your valve in the mask, for 13 or 14 hours.
Just my "whine of the day" at the pester!
Gums remembers....
Jez thot we needed a bit of light commentary and this thing is very sad.
