Mr. James 1077 and Mr. Kingoftheslipstream,

Thank you kindly for sharing your views on the subject matter!

Surely, as I child I would have adored to enter the flight deck of an actually flying machine; I guess it's almost everybody's dream, but I may be over generalising. Alas, I never had a chance in a real Jet airliner... but perhaps, and this just to invite others to kindly participate, was this also for my own and that of other passenger's safety?

I couldn't forget to mention the Aeroflot Flight 593 air accident, "kids in the cockpit", that so unnecessarily contributed to the death of all the passengers aboard.

(I couldn't find the Final Report for this air crash, does somebody have a link?)

[...]
There are rare instances whereby flight crew on vacation are asked ta operate a flight and do so without uniform but with permission from within the management a the company... :-)
Should this be the case in my future eventual report to the DFO, there would certainly not be a problem for anybody (unless being banned as passenger from that certain Airline, which I couldn't care less, or a crew member that gets angry and pays me a visit at home, knowing I do not like guests ;-) )

(P.S.: erroneously I omitted a "0" in my previous, should have written "FL100", of course).

Thank you again & Good continuation!
