  • This is why Bob, the singing pilot, isn’t feeling so rested after his crew rest break

    The pilot rest facility on the 767 operating on long international flights is a business class seat with a privacy curtain. It is lousy for getting rest. The seat is located near the noisy mid galley. But worst of all, whenever a really fat person zips by, … – Bob
