I remember when I was a wee kid coming back from LAX-LHR about an hour into the flight and going up to the cockpit of what must have been a very nearly new 747-400 and looking out of the window at an electrical storm all around us and cross referencing it with the weather radar screen thing. Was up on the flight deck for about 30mins

That was back in the day when I used to draw pictures for the pilot and ask if I could come and look at the cockpit
