Well,our beancounters didn't buy the on screen movie option on the ND,so we had to buy ourselfs from Dubai and install in the cockpit the 7.5 inch DVD/Tv tuner ,in place of the EFB,which we won't use.Of course we use the cockpit AC outlets,and we also managed to get the sound through the cockpit speakers system.
We have a system delivered by B ,which decreeses the movie sound when we are called by ATC,by automatically recognizing the callsign we entered in FMC.
About lap dance,well the bus beat us on that with their table
I think I'll suggest to the bosses to do a custom design table to be put on the chair arm rest,maybe will do the trick..
You can see now the reason for some delays,or holding at arrival,due to the fact that the movie will autoswitch off at GS capture,and sometimes we arrive too soon,and the film it's not over yet.So..
And yes,weare expecting soon the FAA aproval for the new ,improved 7.1 sound system made by Honeywell...top of the art.
