Obviously you've stumbled on the new iPlane.

Pilots will have to check they've downloaded the right apps before take-off.

But it won't work if you touch that metal bit around the edge

Oh hang on - here's a good old fashioned rubber band

Love the iPlane 4

if it is indeed the new iPlane, will the older pilots have to bring along their 7 & 8 year old grandchildren to show them how to operate it, and then set the time?

The new iPlane, doesnt have any touch screens? Look at the size of those buttons. I hear they're bringing out a new system called the iCrew too.

Looks like a A330-300 to me. ( no centre tank!)

I think it's a Braeburn Beverley.

As flown by that doyenne of female cloud-dodgers, Granny Smith.
