Default Riding the wave in an MD-11

The link posted above was taken from my first flight in wave a few years back. I think it was between Calgary and Denver? Our flight plan put us right in the sink,and I asked the Captain if he minded if I asked atc for a "deviation right of course for weather." They both thought I was nuts... but it did make us go faster!
