Coolest flight experience
I'm looking at all the photo trip reports and drooling at all the cool stuff for first class international travelers. Just throwing this question out there (since I'll never have that kind of elite status or $$ to spend): What's the coolest flight experience you've ever had and why?

Flew in a prior company's private jet from HPN to Bermuda and back. On the flight back to the U.S., I engaged the pilots in some conversation while I was stretching my legs. They invited me to ride in the cockpit for the duration of the flight, including landing at HPN. It was probably the coolest flying experience I've had.
