WOW... that is soon!

So the CAA have finally seen the light and decided that wearing the headphones (through which the evacuate announcement would doubtless be blasted) would not impair our exit or concentration in the event of an emergency. Who knows, it might be mobiles on the taxiways next

Would be good news, even with the old and not particularly impressive versions of the IFE. Even better news on the new 777s and the A380s.

Means I could get a film in and plenty of sleep on overnight runs rather than having to wait for 40 mins after takeoff plus the time it takes to screen the pointless wellbeing in the air video first.
