How do you get to video that mate? I thought that the cabin crew would have stopped it, as they normally say that you should turn all electronic items off during takeoff because i would like to do this too.
Great video – steady hand hehe.

This is a good question, but if you look at the Trip reports on airliners.net you will see hundreds of videos that have been taken from peoples seats. As well as lots of still photos. Some people even take videos of the cabin crew doing the safety briefing (Ryanair, on YouTube.). One person doing a trip report on Globespan’s flight from JFK-LPL said that a Ground employee of Swissport told him to stop taking photos at the airport, and said that was against FAA regulations. Anyone heard of that rule?
