Just find an aircraft with enough room to drive an external mouse.

I'd settle for an airplane with enough room to avoid shearing the
display off when the guy in front of me decides it is a good idea to
lean back.

I have an Inspiron 7000 with the large display. I gave up on seat-back

truly a _lap_top. (Even more reason why an outboard mouse won't
cut it.)
