I'd be curious which parts of the flight path those clips represented. Were they at important navigational landmarks? Were they nice vistas, places he wanted to see before a suicidal plunge? If they were only a few seconds each, that might indicate that he was checking those points for intentional reasons, rather than for fun.
- _s 4y agoI could be remembering wrong - but he skipped the "straight" bits, and only flew the parts where his interaction was needed.
