I once had a recurring dream where I was standing along the side of a runway watching a plane take off. The plane was usually a small one and was always traveling from left to right across my field of vision as it lifted off. Then, just as it starts to gain some altitude, it suddenly drops out of the sky and crashes into the runway directly in line with where I'm standing. The dream ends right there.

One day back in the real world, I'm at an airshow watching some aerobatic flying demos. People are standing along the entire length of the runway watching the show and I'm somewhere past the middle of this long, stretched-out crowd as the next plane starts to gather speed for takeoff. It's coming from my left as it heads toward where I'm standing and starts to pull up. The pilot apparently tried to climb too steeply, stalled at about 300' and fell like a rock. He crashed back onto the runway...directly in line with where I'm standing...just like I'd 'seen' so many times before! Friends there with me said I looked like a deer-in-the-headlights as I told them about my premonition.

I never had the dream again after that day...
