Since when do US domestic flights show Top Gear.

Was just on a Delta flight from Detroit to Phoenix. Was passed out, and woke up to this on the overhead monitors. Swwweeetttttt.

Maybe Delta is good for something after all!

Or maybe they are trying to get us to like them more (since we bash them a lot)

Wait, there are still planes with shared screens?

Was it playing BBC America or something? That episode is from a few years ago.

Not live TV. Was just Delta programming. A movie, Top Gear, and some Olympic highlights.

Ohh. Most of the flights I've been on have had live TV, but I've only flown like 7 times.

If I remember correctly, wasn't there an RR Clio from Japan?

I was on a flight from Chicago to Boston a few weeks ago that had BBCA on the seatback monitors. American is also apparently good for something :)

I've seen the Top Gear caravanning episode on 3 different airlines. Weird.

I remember watching Top Gear for an entire flight once. It was awesome! Can't remember which airline.

I saw it on a flight a couple of weeks ago. You were on a 737, right? I was pretty happy to see something like that on the flight.

Relevant.

Yep. 737-800. Seat 13B. Worst seat ever. Middle seat of a row with no window.
