Shell -- After that,...bibi -- those were the days!<br /><br />Shell -- After that, I would have spent the whole flight frantically looking for other planes to warn the pilot about—yikes!<br /><br />Marylene -- Had a similar experience on a commuter flight from Boston to the island of Nantucket—but I did get to sit in the co-pilot's seat (like from cali)!<br /><br />from cali -- I also got to "fly" a commercial jet (with passengers aboard). It's a long story, but the pilot sat me in his seat & leaned over from behind me with his hands over mine and "we" took off from Bombay, landed in Kuwait, took off from Kuwait, and landed in Cairo! Woo-hoo! (At that point in my life I had only a love-love relationship with flying.)Alexahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03620873522996260383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2707525594638269782.post-28045736536766845882009-05-15T11:18:00.000-04:002009-05-15T11:18:00.000-04:00Shell: that is a funny, scary story!

The pilots knew I had a fear of flying and were trying to put those fears at bay and the feeling of control made it an exciting landing.from calinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2707525594638269782.post-53527960382061816962009-05-15T09:59:00.000-04:002009-05-15T09:59:00.000-04:00..."where I can keep an eye on things" T......"where I can keep an eye on things" That is too funny Alexa.<br />great skywatch.<br />I'm with you re your B& H post.dianasfaria.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10488357854017358868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2707525594638269782.post-23997631195065609152009-05-15T09:46:00.000-04:002009-05-15T09:46:00.000-04:00This reminds me of the very little plane I once to...This reminds me of the very little plane I once took between Jersey and Guernesey. The first thing the pilot asked me was my weight ! I had imagined that English gentlemen were more educated than that !!!<br />He claimed it was just to distribute the weights on the plane, let me tell you that I never fully beleived him !Marylènehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15529601370829793771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2707525594638269782.post-89350914319712722842009-05-15T08:57:00.000-04:002009-05-15T08:57:00.000-04:00Alexa, you and Bibi are brave in my eyes!

He said, "I'm serious." Kind of took the fun out of it for me.<br /><br />Have a gorgeous time, Alexa!
