On my last flights, about two weeks ago (IAD-SFO-IAD), Channel 9 was on, the first time in several trips since September 11. I was pleasantly surprised. I wasn't even sure UA's 757s were still equipped for "From the Cockpit"; at on point the in-flight magazine didn't list it as an option on 757s and 767s. >kr Nick
