Very cool - but what's with the big bulkhead in front of the passengers??
I'd be pretty pissed off with paying 200K and not being able to see forward
and the pilots doing their stuff! It's not full height so can't be
structural.

Oh and letting them all float about in zero-g looks fun, but notice they
didn't show the panic and confusion as everyone tries to take their seats
for re-entry:)

Also, it seems a little hazardous for the passengers to leave their visors
down when entering zero-g - they should flip open their visors and grab the
barf-bags in due time ;-)

Perhaps the helmets are equipped with Barf-O-Suc self-contained vomit
catchers...an item that I should probably get to work on now if I want to get
rich off this burgeoning industry....

Entertaining, but I have to confess that I'm getting quite tired of just
animations...

Hahahaha, yes I agree, that would be a VERY good invention. Very nice
movie, and I, too, agree that these animations are losing their touch,
and I want more than just to see it.
