In my 7 plus decades,I have never been in a plane.
The funny part is ,my son in law is an airplane mechanic. He has a pilots license and has owned several planes.Just recently he passed hi multi engine pilots test and has his commercial license.
I have just never had the need to get somewhere by air.
Anyone else on here ,never left the ground???

Why would you leave the ground… Your the Bogmaster!


I love the smell of burning spruce---I love the sound of a spring time goose---I love the feel of 40 below---from my trapline I will never go!

I have been on a plane several times. I can't speak to smaller single engine planes and the like... But having been on several commercial airliners... You aren't missing anything Tom. Air travel used to be "luxurious" now it's all about shoehorning as many sardines in the can as possible.

I took flyin lessons in a small cessna, Nervous but as long as I had my hands on the controls I was OK, Put me in a big jet and I had better be inebriated.

Hard for me to imagine not flying. How do you get anywhere?

I have done conventions in several states--I don't fly---but I do drive. Seems we have roads in every state.

I never wanted to get on a plane but the army didn’t give me any options lol. Have been on one flight since I left the service years ago.

True but you stand a better chance of dying in an automobile crash than a plane crash.


Wish I had more time to trap....

3 hours from home to Florida on a plane and 24 hours in a car. And it's cheaper to fly now.

I've been on alot of planes. San Francisco to Hong Kong was the longest flight. A bit over 18 hours. The true meaning of jet lag can be experienced on a flight like that!

Have never been on a plane, but have logged many hours in helicopters....with Georgia DNR, Florida Wildlife Commission, and Georgia drug task force.
