One Amazing Thing I've Done
I was allowed to sit on the jump seat in the cockpit of an Austrian Airlines flight form Vienna to Odessa in 1998 approaching Odessa Airport. The landing was quite good but since the runway was in a rather bad condition it was bumpy till the plane arrived its parking position. But I really enjoyed this expierence.
