Sometimes when arriving from the south or west for either the straight-in to 4 or the Expressway Visual 31 at KLGA we pass close by Coney Island, at least that's what the pilots tell me. Irrespective of whether the airplane is flying flat or banked up in a turn, I am sitting on the wrong side of the airplane to see the CIY; that is, in the event I am assigned the jumpseat at 1L. At that point, if I am not scrolling through the latest edition of Vogue or Elle or Cosmopolitan, I am just sitting backwards, staring straight ahead at the bulkhead, oblivious. That 31 approach is scary, especially the last sweeping turn to line up over the water, especially if the pilots are ex-military who fly with "controlled aggression", since in that circumstance I'd be on the side of the airplane facing down. Even though I'm afraid to look out the window, for some inexplicable reason I always do and immediately regret it, turn away trembling, and pray. I'm in it for the paycheck, understand that.
