In Defense of Laptops, MP3 Players, and Gadgets in Airline Cockpits (via Fast Company) - http://www.fastcompany.com/blog...
"What will our pilots do during those long boring hours while the autopilot is busy flying the aircraft? Without PSPs or iPods and to amuse them, surely they're in danger of falling asleep from boredom--and doesn't that sound more dangerous than a teeny, tiny overshoot? If anything we should demand more gadgets in the cockpit to keep the crew alert, keep them ahead of the technological edge, and keep their fingers nimble and exercised from all that game playing to be ready to push the myriad of little buttons on the flight computers." - David Lounsbury from Bookmarklet
