A major complaint of the blended wing design for new aircraft is that there would be fewer windows for passengers.
Would you accept to fly on a windowless plane if you were able to
"see" outside of the aircraft on a monitor in front of your seat?
With the reduction in the cost of LCD screens I believe it would be easier to install this type of monitors in your front seat allowing you to have multiple views of the aircraft and its surroundings. Don't you hate it when the pilot uses the PA system to tell you what wonderful monument or view is on this or the other side of the plane and you are sitting on the opposite side?
I also believe it would be possible to reduce the cost of construction of airplanes and increase the integrity and lifespan of hulls if windows were removed.
What do you think?

I would hate to give up my window seat. But, I would do it for a monitor that, in addition to providing a view of the ground and sky, would let me switch to watch the pilots point of view, or the other side of the plane. Also it would be great to be able to overlay information from Google Earth so I would know which geographic features I was passing over.
That would be cool!!

yes I would buy a seat on such an aircraft, in fact I think it would be a very good idea as apart from a very limited view of the world at 34000 feet windows have no other use at all while a monitor in front of you would give a much better view and could be used for many other things ie films and advertising etc.whether it would make passenger jets safer is debatable but I am sure it would cut production costs and therefore lead to cheaper tickets. Yes a very good idea.

I don't know if you have ever flown on a 747 but if your seat is in the center section, you can't see out the windows anyway. I wouldn't have any problems with not having a window.

Yes, I'm all for it. Actually, a system like this would allow more people to have a "window" than currently possible so it would be a very good thing.

I could care less about windows on a plane. I tend to either read, sleep, or watch a portable DVD when I fly. You can't see much out the window anyway...

I like windows, but if you are in the center section of a 747, you can't see out anyway, so windows don't make much difference there.

expensive chum, once you compromise for Jesus Christ as your man or woman Saviour, the Holy Spirit actually takes up residency in you. Christ reported until eventually i bypass the comforter won't be able to come. yet Christ replaced into taken up and the Holy Spirit got here on all those cutting-edge at Pentacost. The Holy Spirit (The Spirit of truth) in accordance to right here verse is indwelling. "in case you want me, you'll obey what I command. and that i will ask the daddy, and he will furnish you with yet another Counselor to be with you perpetually— the Spirit of truth. the international won't be able to settle for him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. yet you recognize him, for he lives with you and could be in you." back we see the Holy Spirit (Ruach Elohim - Spirit of God) manifesting. at the same time as the day of Pentecost got here, they were all at the same time in a unmarried position. suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind got here from heaven and crammed the finished residing house the position they were sitting. They said what appeared to be tongues of fireplace that separated and got here to relax on each and each of them. all of them were crammed with the Holy Spirit and began to talk in different tongues because the Spirit enabled them. The Holy Spirit is element of the Trinity and has the options of God. The Holy Spirit is God. God is everwhere and at the same time interior the believer. besides the indisputable fact that the Spirit of God even although omnipresent, does not take in residency in an unbeliever. The unbeliever does not have the presents
