A Sweet Invention

I know that the invention of aiplanes is long ago, but having just flown for the first time this year, its new to me. Over spring break, I traveled with the track team to Vegas. It only took over four hours to get there by plane compared to that of 3-4 days by car. This is an amazing invention. It saves so much time let alone gas. We can travel anywhere in the world for reasonable prices and it will only take us a minimal amount of time compared to other modes of transportion. Although I am terrified of heights which kept me from traveling by plane before, I can't wait to fly again. While waiting for my return flight to Pittsburgh, we were sitting on the plane in Vegas waiting to take off when the crew discovered a computer problem with the plane. Needless to say none of us wanted to stay on this plane. We waited around for four hours until the airline finally decided to give us a new plane and we continued on.
