[Don Plumley]

I've flown a lot (3 million lifetime with AA). Even on its worst day, I love to fly. I get giddy when I drive to SFO (or any airport) and see airplanes and runways. Yes, I've had many miserable experiences, from cramped middle seats to endless cancellations and delays. I love to fly. Because even after 12 hours of the worst cattle class, toenail picking, bad smelling, lousy seat of flying, you wake up in an amazing corner of the world, seeing more things in five minutes that erases that few bad hours. And that's why you fly.
