what was that crash a while back when they think the PIC may have put his foot up on the central console and tripped the autopilot off accidentally..
I know an airline where several of the Captains regularly put their feet on the forward console (even with a visitor on the flight deck). I must say it was always amusing to watch even if it didn't exactly inspire confidence!
I foresee Captains sporting their Breitlings on their right wrist ..
I always wear my watch on the right - have done for years, much easier to read (for me at least). You forgot to mention the advertising potential! Jocks could have company logos sewn into the back of their shirts in return for a modest retainer!
From what I've understood, video recorders are on the way in (whether we want them or not). I believe they will form part of the 'investigation package' ie. FDR, CVR and now CVR2.
