When we change over at the end of our rest 😴period, we make up the bunk 🛏 with fresh bedding for the next pilot 👨✈️ . Probably the neatest I have seen. (Ex Navy unsurprisingly🛳) 😎

On the way to LAX 🇺🇸 last week. Offsetting on the North Atlantic tracks. We can fly 0, 1 or 2 miles right of track. Helps with wake turbulence and in the event of an aircraft being unable to maintain altitude. 😎
