Or walk into the cockpit of a commercial flight while in flight to see how pilots worked

That was super cool for me as a flight sim enthoustic kid.

They will occasionally let a kid visit the cockpit while boarding if they show interest and the crew is extra nice

And you can ask for a trading card of the plane from the oilot as well

Cool, probably very dependent on the airline. I've never had one of those.

And it's all fun and games until you bring out that 737 Max card ...
