> I've heard people sat that airplanes fly so high, you can't see anything. Rubbish. I can remember seeing lightning at night, lighting up the inside of towering cumulus clouds. I have seen Washington D.C. from so high the buildings and monuments looked like toys. I have seen the sun rise above a layer of clouds early in the morning and the moon turning the cloud tops blue at night.
> I have seen snow capped mountains sticking out of stratus clouds, and a plume of steam rising from a volcano 100 miles away. I have seen mountains covered with black and white striped glaciers and circles of irrigated crops miles below. At night, small towns look like a bed of hot coals in a dying campfire. I have seen all of the Great Lakes, Great Salt Lake, Lake Okeechobee, Lake Tahoe, the Carribean, Cape Cod Bay, Long Island Sound, The Gulf of Mexico, and both the Atlantic and Pacific, all from more than 30,000 feet. You can't fly too high to enjoy the view.
