BEST SEAT IN THE HOUSE: VIEW FROM A PILOT’S CHAIR

Working at a height of 36,000ft, pilots may have the best view in the world. These photographs, taken on board an Airbus A320, provide a stunning series of views from the plane’s sky-high cockpit. Cabin crew worker Sikander Naveed captured these images above Nepal and Bangladesh. The 31-year-old insists he took the job on board the commercial passenger jet airliner so he would have the opportunity to photograph the view from the cockpit.
