It fricking pisses me off to see some a-hole barging up to the front when plane comes to a hault. In a hurry? Running late? Guess what a-hole, so is everybody else. Sit back, wait your turn and DWI.


That is incorrect. Some people are running late and need an extra minute or two to catch their connection. In fact, the flight attendants sometimes say to let the people who are catching connecting flights out before if the plane is late

I've flown enough now that I don't even notice it, but I used to get nervous on take off and landing

now I am one of those people who can get on the plane and fall asleep before we even take off

although it can be a bit scary when we land and I'm asleep and all of a sudden I'm shaking

not scared but I usually get pretty fricked up before I fly so that knocks out any kind of anxiety. It kinda freaked me out when I was younger but I got over it

Not scared at all. I have flown private and commercial and fly several times a month. I have never been scared or nervous even when we had to make an emergency landing once coming out of Barbados.

I am always amazed that we humans FLY miles and miles in a tin can with 2 jet engines strapped on. Engineering marvel.

Flew many times and had 1 flight where we had such bad turbulence overhead compartments were busting open, mask fell down, people were flying out of seats if not strapped in and screaming. Been terrified ever since.

I definitely have a fear of flying. Specifically when it comes to taking off & landing. Generally, I have a drink or two before a flying.

Just touched down. I actually get a little rush when the plane is accelerating before it lifts off. So fast!
