I am an extremely frequent flier and love flying. Airport hassles, I could do without, but such is life.

yea the wings flex up / down but they are designed to do that... the 787 wings were bent 27 feet up and they still didn't break.... I love to fly.. I hold FAA private pilots rating ("license" if you like.. the FAA does not issue "licenses" they issue certficates & ratings) I have hundreds of skydives too...great fun!!... |

you need to learn to "equlize" the pressure in your ears... chew gum, move jaw around side to side often in flight.. that will open tubes in your ear allowing ears to equlize... the aircraft cabin is presserized to 5000 ~6000 feet. chewing gum / moving jaws side to side should do trick...

I fly a lot to anywhere except America before and after 9/11 until my first visit to America last year. At first I was scared to fly over America because of 9/11... I tried to ignore my phobia and continue to fly over to America... I'm really happy that I DID it especially met ADers in real life...

I agree! One time I was flying into Washington D.C., it was nearly 7pm and I was flying with the golden, vibrant colors of sun's ray into the sunset. I flying through the small, fluffy thick white clouds. Then it became red-purplish. It was gorgeous!

I voted all right because the airline industries are deregulated and chaos has ensued... I miss the time when they were regulated because I recall enjoying a HOT steaming meals in the 70's ! Good fares and all flights were on-time...
Effects of Airline Deregulation Act shows that "these benefits of deregulation have not been evenly distributed through the national air transportation network. Costs have fallen more dramatically on heavily trafficked, longer-distance routes than on shorter, lighter ones." and "Exposure to competition led to heavy losses and conflicts with labor unions at a number of carriers. Between 1978 and mid-2001 nine major carriers (including Eastern, Midway, Braniff, Pan Am, Continental, America West Airlines, and TWA) and over 100 smaller airlines had gone bankrupt or been liquidated—including most of the dozens of new airlines founded in deregulation's aftermath." Those bolded were the great airlines I flew on but sad to see it go... If the ADA was not established then we will be enjoying a great flight with hot steaming meals in this decade! Here's the article you all may want to read; The Case for Re-Regulating The Airline Industry | Autopia from Wired.com (I don't agree with all of his proposal)

Yeah! You have to chew a gum. It will help you not get hurt your ears. When I was on flight. I wore my HA with turn off and stay ear molds in. It's not hurt me. Because I chewed a gum in same time.
