I would love to have a camera mounted in the nose that displayed on the entertainment system mounted on the seat-back in front of me. That would be cool, and would make me much more comfortable on the flight.

Equipped with eyeball-tracking technology like the Amazon Fire Phone, so as you looked at the image from different directions, it could display the view from a different angle, as if you were actually looking through a window.

OK. I would pay extra for that.

The Japanese airlines have this feature for takeoffs and landings. The landing view is turned on 5 or 10 minutes before touchdown. It is really neat to see the airport/runway grow from a tiny speck and watch as the pilot lines everything up. (My adult stepson hates it.)

China Airlines does have that. They turn it on during takeoff and landing. They might have it on during the flight, but since I always fly it at night, it would just be a black screen.
