I was just pointing out the absurdity of describing seeing something on TV in a plane, recorded with a camera on the plane, as seeing it with your own eyes, without even realizing it 😄.
Oh I see, the last thing I said about turning on the TV. Well you’re right that wouldn’t be the same but part of the problem was that we didn’t really know what we were missing. My kid got all stirred up over the fact that he couldn’t see the rocket. TV would have been something.
A lot of thing you can see from a plane have this problem of only being on one side so yeah the TV would just be a slight concession to folks on the wrong side.
