Great report Ryan, thanks for sharing.

Has DJ stopped installing Live2Air on their new aircrafts? You mentioned you were on DJ's newest B737-800 on SYD-ADL but it didn't seem to have Live2Air installed.

There are a few aircraft that don't have live2air, VBT and VUO both don't have it.

Ryan,

What is the best way to ask to be allowed to view/photograph the cockpit?

Nick

Nick, I usually am one of the last off and if the door is open ask if you can have a quick look.

Ryan thanks for the feedback!

I might lag behind when I fly to the GC in Sept and see if I can ask nicely for a pic with the captain or crew.
