Flights of Fancy
I love airplanes ever since I was a boy, and flying from point A to point B, tiring as it may be on some occasions, is one of the aspects that I love about travelling.
Here are some of the planes that I took in the past six months, from top: the Delta 747-400, at Detoit; the Cebu Pacific Air Airbus A319, at Chep Lap Kok airport in HK; the Delta Canadair CRJ900 going to St. Louis; and the new Philippine Airlines Boeing 777, bound for HK from Manila
