There were 660,480,345 airline passengers in 2005 in the United States alone.

I will leave this planet one day, but it would be VERY VERY unlikely that it will be because of a terrorist act on a plane.  The terrorists want to play to our fears, and the world has a very irrational disproportionate fear of flying.  The want to scare us, and they do.

I love to fly as well......not happy about take offs and landings.....but love to travel!!!

I like sitting in airports and ppl watch as well..........you see some right winners there!!!


See....I don't particulary enjoy flying, but I love to travel so I see it as a means to an end.  Does that make any sense at all?  I know my fear of flying isn't totally rational, but how many fears are?

And I quite enjoy people watching as well, MeShell!!!  ;)  Some of their behaviour is downright shocking, though...travelling, even if you're tired, cranky, and feeling inconvenienced, is no excuse to be rude and nasty to people!!!

When I am grown-up I will understand how BEAUTIFUL it feels to administrate my life effectively.

Until then I will continue to TORCH all correspondence that bores me and to dance NAKED over the remnants of its still glowing embers.

I don't give flying a second thought.  It's part of my life/work.  I have a routine on a plane and I've been doing it for so long, I guess it's all just natural.

I do have to agree, I LOVE watching people at the airport.  I find much amusement in it.
