flying figh

my first experience of flying has been a definitely enjoyable experience. it kept me thinking all the way about the human thoughts that have given rise to such innovations. seeing an aeroplane taking off from outside has not made me think so much. moving 2000 km in about 2 1/2 hours just amazed me. to think that i was able to have my breakfast in chennai and be there for the lunch in delhi was something great. just think of the other option of moving by train, where u will need at least a day and a quarter before setting foot on the delhi soil. time saved by air travel is immense and the total absence of travel tiredness is undisputable. with not much of fare differnce between the low cost airline tickets and the high end train fares, its really a boon for someone who can afford. i definitely am happy to have had the chance to have travelled by air, as flying gave me a great high as well as made me appreciate the contribution made to the world by every innovator/inventor. thanks a lot Wright brothers!!! ( please accept this though it comes about a century later )

I for one completely disagree, give me train that will take me from india to Europe and then on to Africa, and I would forego all plane travel, they make me really really sick and uncomfortable.and i prefer pallavan buses even better
