DG -- I book close to 100K miles a year and still love the thrill of flying -- when I am at a window seat (only bulkhead so I can get out without making person next to me get up -- see, I'm particular, but caring) I LOVE looking out -- of course the middle of the county is boring, but about 4 hours into the flight west, I know the edge of the Rockies are soon there -- it's great...
One of my favorite flights for gawking is up/down LA to Seattle...that's great viewing -- Sahsta, Bachelor, Hood, St Helens....
