The Landing
gmik:
Arc: I hadn't flown in over 35 years. Too scary and no $$$ w/ the kids and all, but mostly fear!
After finding the truth about God's Will, no free will, and the real truth about death:
We flew last year (not delta ;)) and I didn't even use the Xanax my doctor had given me.
So next week for Spring Break we are flying to Florida! I don't even think about the "fear" of it. How liberating is God's Word.

That's great Gena, I hope you and yours have a great time in Florida.

People are so hard to please, any landing you can walk away from is a good one. LOL
Sign in a parachute packing shop. "we're the last to let you down" "We never get complaints"

Good one Seeker1 :D
Gena...that is great. I had the privilege of flying the Concord from NY to London. At the top height you could see a band of dark and it was day time. It was awesome what God has permitted man to discover! I realised that even in the day time, the earth is in darkness and cradled in watchfully still and glorious night sky above our daytime oblivion! The stars are always shining even in the day time you just can not see them but fly the Concord and you get a glimpse of what Space trip might look like. Destination. The moon. Time of departure lunch time noon. ETA into the vast expanse of Gods night..some seconds immediately after take off countdown ....Like taking off at lunch time and entering Gods dark sacred night moments later! 8)
It was amaizing! 8)
Peace to you
Arcturus :)

I HOPE YOU HAVE AGOOD TIME IN Fla. Gena!
Artutus, that is an intresting sight, I have never seen it or dreamed of that scenario.
When I was on a plane from NYC to Dahran, Saudi Arabia, we had flown over the Red Sea and passed over the Western Coast
of Saudi Arabia; I took a pix of 'crossing the Red Sea' (like the exodus), I gave it to Daniel to show during his culture fair presentation of Saudi Arabia. It is one of my favorite pictures. (Of course I was air sick for abou 16 of the 18 hr trip over there...I was sprawled out on the floor of the stewardesses cabin up above the rest of the people...they were sweet and gave me ginger ale and bananas..(Imagine that, being on a 747 plane with nothing but doctors, nurses, and all sorts of medical personell only and no one had dramamine for me! :-\)
_)
I was a medic for an elite 6 member group of Military Parachutists and we would get at the 12,000 foot height in an open helecopter and right before they would jump out they would say..."Doc, did ya bring your spatula..."! ;D :D Then the pilot would freak me out by landing on the runway on his skids as if he were an airplane with wheels; of course they arn't supposed to do that to the skids of a helecopter, they wee suposed to just land onto the ground...oh well, he loved doing that! :o
My brother is about 6ft 4 in tall and he just retired from the ARMY, but he was the one that would push you out of the perfectly good airplane (He was a Master Blaster...or a Master Jump Master....) After the soldiers would look at him they would decide to jump instead of have to deal with his wrath. ;) :D
