This is why when I hear a small plane hovering overhead I cringe, its always been that way, Id never want to fly on one
Med Flight (Helicopter) goes over our farm on it’s way to the hospital about 10 miles away. Happens once every few weeks; more so in the summer months.
Always unnerving and I say a quick prayer when I hear/see it. Someone is NOT having a good day!
Any small plane hovering is in a stall and is crashing.
Exception could be a Piper Cub, known to fly like a kite.
I’m the exact opposite. I’d hop into a small plane any chance I get. Esp. on a day with some moderate cumulus clouds building high. (T-storms, NO.)
Early in the morning sunlight
Soaring on the wings of dawn
Here I’ll live and die with my wings in the sky
And I, I won’t come down no more
Higher than the birds I’m flyin’
Crimson skies of ice and fire
Borne on wings of steel I have so much to feel
And I, I won’t come down no more
Sail on, sail on, I will rise each day to meet the dawn
So high, so high
I’ve climbed the mountains of the sky
Without my wings you know I’d surely die
I’ve found my freedom flyin’ high
I’ve climbed the mountains of the sky
Floating on the clouds of amber
Searching for the rainbow’s end
Earth so far below me, I’m here alone
And I, I won’t come down no more (no more)
Sail on, sail on, I will rise each day to meet the dawn
So high, so high
I’ve climbed the mountains of the sky
Without my wings you know I’d surely die
I’ve found my freedom flyin’ high
I’ve climbed the mountains of the sky!
