Is jealously a bad thing?

Personally, I don't think jealously begins to describe it, Chris! Thanks for the post, though. Glad to see that non-instructors are allowed to do this kind of thing at the crew's request. It really must have been an awesome experience to see what might happen on the Flight Deck during an abort scenario.

I'm drowning in waters of envy. Guess I'll have to step it up and be the guy in the orange suit next to him someday.

By the way...we need to petition PAO to let Chris go do this.

I really debated before posting anything because I knew were it me reading about someone else, I too would be turning all shades of green. But then I thought that others might be able to vicariously share in the experience through my photos, so I shared a few with some friends and eventually, as linked, on the website. I hope they were of some enjoyment -- and Nathan, I'll gladly accept your invitation to join you for your crew's ascent sim.

Absolutely! And thank you so much for considering it.
