When play begins: 
    now left hand status line is "Other cabins to the: [exit list]"; 
    now right hand status line is "[location]".
To say exit list: 
	let place be location; 
	repeat with way running through directions: 
		let place be the room way from the location; 
		if place is a room, say " [way]".
		
[Disable take all]
Rule for deciding whether all includes something: it does not.
		
When play begins: Say "You are on a flight back home, when you learn that there are terrorists that have taken over the cockpit. Break in to the cockpit to restrain the terriorists before they fly the plane away to a far off land. Other passengers don't know about this, so be as discreet as possible in order to not freak them out."

Description of player is "You are a pilot traveling as a passenger on your way back home. You are in ordinary clothes, but the flight attendants know you, so you don't arouse too much suspicion from them. There is something small in your trouser pocket (Inventory)."

[Understand "step on to catering bin", "step on catering bin", "step on to catering bin to open overhead bin", "step on catering bin to open overhead bin" as height.
