Flight

This means so many different things to so many people. For some, it refers to your commercial flight where you had to jump through hoops to get a ride to the airport, take off your shoes, hurry up and wait and then ride in a cramped airplane with a kid crying behind you. For some, it brings up the feeling of family or vacation, because when you do it, that is the destination. For skydivers, it means something completely different. The plane ride is simply a means to an end. It gets you to about 13K, so you can really fly. The freedom and calm that comes from flying through the sky can only be explained by those that do it. For me, it's my yoga. It is there that my mind, body and spirit have to be present. When flying, there is nothing else to think about, worry about, plan for or stress about. I am just there. The amazing thing is that I can attain this same beauty while indoor skydiving. Tunnel flight puts you there...in the flying place. This is why I love it. This is why everyone I work with loves it. It is a special place with a special feeling. Once you taste it, you want a buffet.
