Sitting at my computer once the plane I am flying reaches it's designated altitude and the plane is on autopilot I have several options. I can go elsewhere in the house and watch TV, or read a book, or wash dishes etc. Or I can speed up the sim to about 8X and watch the country side zip by like I'm doing 800 kts and then slow back down to normal time and land the plane. But I wonder how long haul passenger or cargo pilots put up with the boredom without going stir crazy. Other than boinking a stewardess/steward if one is available what do they do?
