The airline's flight attendants were busy at the gate, seeing passengers seated one after another, and the time for the plane to take off was getting closer and closer. The purser began to pick up the microphone and play the take-off announcement to everyone in her pleasant voice: "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Pan Am flight, this flight will be from Washington to Richmond, the whole journey is 265 kilometers, the flight time is 25 minutes, the flight altitude is 7 kilometers, the flight speed is 620 kilometers per hour, in order to ensure the normal operation of the aircraft navigation and communication system, please do not use any electronic equipment during the take-off and descent of the aircraft." The plane is about to take off, and now the cabin attendants are conducting a security check. Please sit in your seat, fasten your seatbelt, and put away the seat back and table. Please make sure that your carry-on items are properly stowed in the overhead bin or under the seat. This flight is non-smoking, so please refrain from smoking during the flight. ”

After all preparations were made, the engines of the plane began to start, and the double-decker Boeing airliner began to pour out strong air currents under the wings, and the plane began to slowly adjust its direction along the long runway, and after the nose and runway center were level, it began to accelerate and gallop forward, and soon increased to more than 300 kilometers per hour, flying into the sky in the bright morning sun.

Will relaxed, flipped through the paper, and began to read.

He noticed the passenger in the front seat, adjusting the angle of the seat on the seat, suddenly the whole seat leaned back, and his personal space was reduced, Will frowned, and looked at the passenger in the front seat, the other party was a middle-aged woman, looking at her 8-year-old son, this little fat man was chubby, his forehead was covered with beads of sweat, his legs were restlessly kicking on the seat, refusing his mother to fasten her seat belt, in this case, the middle-aged woman had to put the seat backwards, Pressing the disobedient little creature into his seat and making him obedient, he finally fastened the seat belt to him, and the seat in front of him was leaning there.

What can Will say in this situation? This is the difference between a civil airliner and a private jet, which is always able to make you encounter something unexpected and make you feel tangled and inconvenient.

The sunlight shone in through the cabin window outside, but it was blocked by a tall figure, it turned out that the flight attendant had started handing out drinks and some snacks, and Will was eager to relax with a whiskey or two, but unfortunately no alcoholic beverages would be served on the plane.

He glanced in the direction of the flight attendant, and suddenly found that one of them looked very similar to his second wife, and a sense of intimacy arose, when the other party came over with a pulley, Will wanted to talk to her more, but in the end he held back, an old man like himself who was over fifty years old, and the other party had never known each other, and taking the initiative to talk to her would definitely cause the other party's disgust, or it was better to be less self-deprecating.

He then opened the golf book and read a few pages, but he couldn't read it at all, he had memorized all the tricks in it, and besides, his mind was not on the book at all, and he was trying to control himself from thinking about the stewardess, and turned out the window.

The plane has risen to an altitude of more than 6,000 meters, flying at a given altitude, he suddenly felt a little pain in his eardrums, it turned out that the plane was avoiding the troposphere in the air, so the altitude was high and low, producing a pressure that was difficult for people to adapt to.

It didn't take long for lunch to be served, with steaks and spaghetti and hot cappuccino with milk, a thick layer of cream floating on top of the coffee. The flight attendant's cart also included a model of Pan Am Airplane.

Having evaded the troposphere, the plane climbed high again. Will took a nap after lunch, and when he woke up the plane was over the city of Richmond, it began to slow down and descend, he went into the bathroom, washed his face with warm tap water, and dispelled the sleepiness he had just felt so that he could return to a state of good spirits.

Then the plane began to broadcast the announcement of the imminent landing, and the passengers gradually woke up, and the plane slowly came to life again.

Looking out from the cabin window, the vast land below is dotted with buildings of all sizes like building blocks dotted on the brown ground; A freight train with wisps of white smoke crawls slowly on the ground; In an unknown river, a fishing boat has just lifted a lucrative net from the water, in which various fish are churning and jumping, reflecting the dazzling sunlight.

As the plane's engines had stopped working and began to taxi forward and downward, the sensation gave the illusion of being suspended in the air, and the only thing that could feel it moving was the dazzling sunlight shining from the outside into the cabin.

The plane finally arrived over Richmond Airport, and Will then saw the elevated overpass road crisscrossing the airport outside, and when the plane slowly landed on the airport, Will's eardrum began to protest again, he pinched his nose with his hand, held his breath, and puffed out a breath, which released the discomfort.

After entering the airport, he went to the airport duty-free shop and bought a delicate emerald pendant and a pair of earrings.

After finding his belongings from the baggage drop desk at the airport, he left the airport and walked towards the taxi waiting area on the side of the road, a pot-bellied Mexican driver was very lazily leaning against his door, and when he saw Will coming, he warmly greeted him and helped him with his luggage, Will could clearly see the large sweat stains on the armpits of his white shirt, apparently he had been waiting for a long time under the scorching midday sun.

At this time, a young lady very elegantly took out a box of Moore cigarettes from her satchel and put a slender cigarette to her mouth, and then, Will heard a crisp sound of sliding lighter, which was a high-end zippo lighter. After taking a puff of her cigarette, the lady said to the driver, "I called this car first, didn't you see it when I waved at you just now?" ”

"I'm sorry ma'am, I really didn't see you waving to me just now, I'm helping this gentleman with his luggage." The taxi driver replied with this obvious implication that this gentleman is his passenger, as for you, please be patient and wait for the next one!

But judging from the woman's anxious expression, she seemed to be in a hurry, and she was very dissatisfied with the driver's reply, and the two began to argue.
