Flight Deck Visitors

I spent some time as "Flying Spanner" with RNAC. One trip was a charter flight to Nagoya to bring Japanese pilgrims to Kathmandu. (the birthplace of the Buddha) Out bound from Nagoya to Hong Kong the Captain went down the back for a wander and returned with a very pretty young woman, complete with the regulation camera. She had a nice visit to the flight deck, took lots of photos and I opened the door for her to leave.
"Captain, you'd better take a look out here"
There was a queue of camera wielding Japanese pilgrims stretching right down the centre aisle, waiting their turn. We barely cleared them all through by the time we reached TOD for Kai Tak
