Waiting on the Tarmac

Flight out is delayed. Have a backup flight in case.

Planes are amazing things. They fly. As a younger man I was thrilled to learn about aerodynamics and how a plane's wing creates lift. Still fascinating.

"Modern" air travel with all the bonuses of delays and "food" has nullified much of the excitement.
