    Dinner in the sky.

    I don't know about you all but this just sends shivers up my spine.

    Dinner is served at 150' in the air.

    Kinda puts a damper on "Excuse me I've gotta go to the mensroom".

      Doesn't put a "damper" on the excuse, as much as changes it to an exclamation of your suicidal intentions.

        No freaking way!

        I noticed she said after getting down she was off to find a decent restaurant, food must have been lacking.....

          Don't drop your fork either.

          I have had dinner many times at 35000 feet. Probably much cheaper that these folks are paying for just 150 feet.

          Space needles and revolving restaurants are a better concept I think.

                I had my lunch yesterday while cruising along at 9,000 feet. In an airplane.

                I'm not scared of heights but I think I'd freak out too.

                  Reminds me of my days climbing to the top of the mast on aircraft carriers. Got easier over time. First time was white knuckles all the way. The view is incredible.

                    Hmm.... Not sure I'd like it - not because of the height but because of the wind noise, etc. Not very practical.

                      That would be cool if it was under a slow speed (< 5 mph) blimp in calm conditions. Great view during dinner. Problem is that you can never find the waiter.
