The flying fear
I take my seat. I remember the windy whack back outside, when the wind blurted in my face as if it were green paint thrown at your face. I try making this flight a really enjoyable one.
The aeroplane transports to its place on the departure air strip, I hear the aeroplane's propellers roar in my ear.
We are off…
We are in the sky, 2000 feet above the ground and rising, rising as if it were a flood. Then all of a sudden the aisle lights between the seats start to blink as if they were gonna explode!!
I think we are about halfway to Australia. I've been studying the wings of the plane the whole trip, now they are rattling as if they were gonna fall off! Then the plane starts to drop, drop like a bird being shot out of the sky. We hit the ground with a great THUD!!!
I realise that we did not crash, we had just landed at the Brisbane airport.
