Charles Bukowski
“I heard an airplane passing overhead. I wished I was on it.”
Charles Bukowski

Merlin Franco
“The nineteen-seater Twin Otters offer three significant advantages: one, they can take off and land on the short runways common in mountainous terrains; two, they are economical to operate in low-traffic routes; three, they help people overcome claustrophobia. You have only two options—to cure yourself or jump into the woods below. And only one of those options guarantees survival.”
Merlin Franco, Saint Richard Parker

Ellen Hopkins
“A breeze blows up, touching my cheek like a little child's kiss. It flutters a piece of paper. "Trash, out there? Must belong to one of us." We move closer, and when I reached for it, I find...... a perfect paper airplane.”
Ellen Hopkins

Richard Bach
“And like no other sculpture in the history of art, the dead engine and dead airframe come to life at the touch of a human hand, and join their life with the pilot's own.”
Richard Bach, A Gift of Wings

J.M.G. Le Clézio
“I wanted to write an adventure story, not, it's true, I really did. I shall have failed, that's all. Adventures bore me. I have no idea how to talk about countries, how to make people wish they had been there. I am not a good travelling salesman. Countries? Where are they , whatever became of them.
When I was twelve I dreamed of Hongkong. That tedious, commonplace little provincial town! Shops sprouting from every nook and cranny! The Chinese junks pictured on the lids of chocolate boxes used to fascinate me. Junks: sort of chopped-off barges, where the housewives do all their cooking and washing on deck. They even have television. As for the Niagara Falls: water, nothing but water! A dam is more interesting; at least one can occasionally see a big crack at its base, and hope for some excitement.
When one travels, one sees nothing but hotels. Squalid rooms, with iron bedsteads, and a picture of some kind hanging on the wall from a rusty nail, a coloured print of London Bridge or the Eiffel Tower.
One also sees trains, lots of trains, and airports that look like restaurants, and restaurants that look like morgues. All the ports in the world are hemmed in by oil slicks and shabby customs buildings. In the streets of the towns, people keep to the sidewalks, cars stop at red lights. If only one occasionally arrived in a country where women are the colour of steel and men wear owls on their heads. But no, they are sensible, they all have black ties, partings to one side, brassières and stiletto heels. In all the restaurants, when one has finished eating one calls over the individual who has been prowling among the tables, and pays him with a promissory note. There are cigarettes everywhere! There are airplanes and automobiles everywhere.”
J.M.G. Le Clézio, The Book of Flights

Toba Beta, Betelgeuse Incident: Insiden Bait Al-Jauza

Jarod Kintz
“As an amateur Air Machine Architect, I design contraptions meant to take man from Point A to Point Z without touching points B through Y. My first Air Machine was modeled off the aerodynamic bodies of ducks, which is why it required water to operate and left poop everywhere.”
Jarod Kintz, BearPaw Duck And Meme Farm presents: Two Ducks Brawling Is A Pre-Pillow Fight

“I was put into a no-win situation by an airport gate agent. They had seen me video recording in the gate area and told me to delete the videos or I would not be allowed to board my plane. I was the last to try and board and they had closed the jetway to the airplane. My assessment of the situation was the jetway was not going to reopen regardless of what I did. As such, I opted to keep my video recordings and they canceled my ticket. The end result was the videos became really popular on social media!”
Steven Magee

Steven Magee
“It is important to not be the last to board an airplane, as airplane seats are often oversold and you may find they need to bump some passengers off the flight. The gate agents will be looking for silly reasons to bump passengers off as they board the plane and if enough are not bumped, the last passengers to board may be in trouble!”
Steven Magee

Steven Magee
“Bumping airplane passengers off flights for silly reasons is how some airlines boost their profits!”

Michela Murgia
“Adesso al check-in, alla domanda "corridoio o finestrino?", rispondo "ovunque, purché non sia vicino a un bambini" e la hostess di terra, vittima anch'ella dietro il suo sorriso, mi guarda con comprensione. Entrambe siamo consapevoli che non c'è alcuna possibilità che una creatura di tre anni non rompa i coglioni a nessuno per la durata di un volo di nove ore e ogni mammina che imbarca un pargolo questo lo sa benissimo. È lei a mettere in conto che, in nome della presunta tenerezza che dovrebbe ispirare il suo bambino, le persone che incontrerà sopporteranno senza lamentarsi una quota di molestie che non hanno scelto. Questo tipo di mammina si incazza quando l'attesa tolleranza non si manifesta e cerca di ribaltare il piano delle cose. Diventa giudicante. Stizzita dice: "Ma è un bambini", come fosse il suo lasciapassare per imporlo al mondo. Lo vedo anch'io che è un bambino, dannata mammina, ma è proprio la ragione per cui non dovrebbe essere qui, tra adulti che non hanno e non vogliono bambini o che li hanno responsabilmente affidati ad altre persone pagate per subirli, invece che pretendere che i presenti di un intero ristorante, di un aereo o di uno scompartimento si imprivvisino gratis puericultrici, nonni e babysitter del tuo pargolo irrequieto.”
Michela Murgia, Tre ciotole

Steven Magee
“I was on a large airplane that was waiting on the runway to take off. The cabin had filled up with toxic jet fuel smelling air. I was sitting there thinking to myself ‘What is the toxic air doing to the baby sitting next to me?’.”
Steven Magee

“As a proven expert on automated electronic computerized control systems, I am asking the question: Are airline passengers hitting the ceiling only on one brand of airplane and is it a certain set of environmental conditions that sends the control system into instability, causing people to float upward?”
Steven Magee

Steven Magee
“Aggressive airplane passengers probably have a bad case of Altitude Sickness. Many people are hypoxic at airplane cruising altitude. They would be wise to visit a doctor to see if they have lung or heart damage, hypoxic blood, Sleep Apnea, Altitude Hypersensitivity or something else that is causing oxygen starvation to the brain.”
Steven Magee

Steven Magee
“I always keep my seat belt on when seated in an airplane, so I do not hit the ceiling as it suddenly drops like an extreme roller coaster!”
Steven Magee

Jacqueline Winspear
“A loud, relentless mechanical moaning filled the air, as if a giant hound constructed by the gods of iron and steel were baying at the moon. The air raid warning started, and then other sounds came - the whine of aircraft engines followed by the crump, crump, crump of bombs falling.”
Jacqueline Winspear, A Dangerous Place

Marie Vassiltchikov
“One wonders whether this succession of plane accidents may not be due to faulty wartime construction. Or is it a sort of curse, punishing mankind for inventing those beastly things.”
Marie Vassiltchikov, Berlin Diaries, 1940-1945
