Summary: Taking pictures from airplanes

I tried that once, but all my pictures came out blurred.  For some
reason, the stewardess started struggling with me when I opened
the window on the DC-10 :-)

Taking cloud formations through the window comes out good,though.
I guess since the subject is soft and not well defined to begin
with, distortion from the window isn't noticable. Colors come
out good also (blue, blue, blue, violet, gray, white, black - oh well
those are colors, I guess)
