    You guys reminded me of the 777 crew rest area. Early in my career I did stuff on the big -300ER and later the -200LR, I believe they both had these sleeping areas. It was pretty cool to go up there or pop out of the overhead bin.

    That’s not at all how I had pictured you.

    I sometimes had to go from DC to Panama City for work. I took the 8am Republic Airlines flight out of Dulles for the hot breakfast. Eggs, toast, sausage and coffee that wasn’t half bad.

    Tell people today about that and they think you’re on drugs.

    One usually does get fed a couple of times on international flights, and it's not that bad. Qantas offers a small bottle of wine gratis with their first meal.

    TAP (Portuguese Airline) has been cheap to Europe from the east coast. Meals were good. Recently we flew Iceland Air, also cheap, but without a decent hot meal (that I can remember).

    And yes, I am a pretty brunette who likes to luxuriate in crew rest areas. I didn't scroll down to see lots more photos in the article (and probably could have picked a better one to link).

    To change subjects, had some beers with my V-22 friends. Times are tough over there. That said, if you were a Greyhound dude, now is your time shine!

    Meals, I used to fly out of Portland to the rest of the USA. Some of the flight were continuations from Japan. For the meal, they offered a Japanese or American option. In those days, I wasn't up to my current gourmet standards and ordered the American mystery meat. The Japanese one had roasted chicken, sushi, etc. and looked really good.

    California prosecutors have charged a YouTuber pilot who deliberately crashed his airplane for online views and then misled investigators about the location of the wreck.

    Trevor Daniel Jacob, 29, pleaded guilty to one count of destruction and concealment with the intent to obstruct a federal investigation, prosecutors said. He faces up to 20 years in federal prison, the Justice Department said in a news release.

    The Federal Aviation Administration revoked Jacob's pilot license in April 2022.
