On January 13, 2012 I got to ride in the cockpit of Delta Air Lines 747-400 N673US as it was being towed from a gate to remote parking at ATL.  Here are some photos from that ride.

WOW!!! I am jealous. And it looks as tall as I thought it would be. You are way up there!

If at first you don't succeed, skydiving is not for you.
