I'm just a PC pilot, and I'm extremely glad that no real pilots have the same inclinations that I have......
Whenever I'm inflight (and I always have a relatively cloud free flight, hahaha) and the flight becomes a bit tedious, I play "I spy with my little eye"...
However I look for other airports to land at. It doesn't matter if I'm 45 minutes out of Townsville bound for Brisbane I will always find it more entertaining to land at Mackay or Proserpine.
Whenever I see an airport, I land there!!!
That's what I do when the PC flight becomes tedious.
