My flightdeck ride also happened in a KLM 747-300. Flying MSP-AMS, I was seated upstairs and was having a friendly conversation with the lead FA. I mentioned how beautiful flying over Greenland will look during the sunset. She asked me to follow her as she ducked into the flightdeck. She came out a few moments later and asked if I would like to see Greenland from the best seat in the house. The flightcrew was exremely friendly and enjoyed all of my questions. After learning I live in Seattle, they returned the questions and asked much about life in the Pacific Northwest. I did not stay in there for landing but did enjoy the company and environment for a good 2 hours.

Eastwest, Congratulations on your lifetime memory!
