My brother in law is active on them, we got to mess about in one for an hour for my sons birthday. The little add-on shelf to fix the slight incline costs about £1500 apiece

Oh mate, that second one is a cracker, love that. Pointless fact about these planes - when in level flight the nose is actually slightly downward pointing, meaning the flat surface in the cockpit aint flat... so the tea slides away from the pilots.
