I spend far too much time on commercial flights to look in the cockpit as
it just makes me nervous. Every once in a while I'll have WingX open on m
y iPad tracking the flight when the Capt or FO walk by coming back from the
head and see it. This is often followed by a sudden stop and double take.
Depending on the equipment type some just shake their head and others are
impressed that a sub $500 device has better situational awareness than the
y have. :)

I was taking a commercial flight back from the east coast yesterday. While
boarding the plane I was holding in line at the door watching the pilot fli
pping through the large scale version of a Pilots Guide (to his left) and i
nserting various colored tabs on different pages. I also saw a few pages fa
ll out. He then refocused his attention to a scroll of pin feed paper print
ed on what I recall as a Dot Matrix printer which was state of the art in t
he 1970's. I had to snap a photo to share. Unnoticed at the time was the pa
per on the dash, the paper on the center console & the book on the far righ
t.
