If the moving map has been removed permanently (anyone know if that is even practicable?) then that really is a great shame. A lot of passengers find it very interesting.
Are we ever going to get security right? Or must we always have this knee-jerk reaction? People try to use liquids as a bomb, so we impose a 100ml restriction on liquids and all the chaos that ensues. Someone tries to cause an explosion before landing, so we're now going to insist that the cabin is prepared for landing one hour before arrival with all the inconvenience that creates?
