Pretty cool, ard...
When I flew for work, very frequently over the course of 25+ years, the excitement was when in-flight calling, at 3 bucks a min, came along.
The only options to pass time then was to read, sort through one's briefcase, watch a highly edited movie, listen to elevator music through plastic tube 'ear phones', or smoke butts & drink copiously back in the fun section.
Times change...747 flights from JFK to ORD.
