Enduring Long Flights

[Graham]

Hi Ron, most of it has been said, and I agree with the three basics 1.no booze, 2. lots 'o water, 3. Lots 'o stretching.

I rarely sleep on long flights, I get bored with movies and I don't read too well. I like using an ipod with lots of relaxing music on it.

Long distance flying is no fun anymore, what with all the paranoia, rules and queues, LA is the worst airport in the world, I will never go there again. Melbourne is one of the best.

Kilts, yes, USA casual is the best for me, no metal, thin and comfy, and I wear slip off sandals an T shirt.

Thanks Graham,

I still have memories of back in the 70s when I was transporting bodies around Orange County, California. Someone's grandmother had flown from Germany to visit Disneyland with the grandkids. She flew from Germany to New York City, then to John Wayne Airport in Orange County. Then got in a cab and rode to Disneyland. When she got out of the cab she fell over dead in the Disneyland parking lot from a clot. She'd been seated some ungodly number of hours. Was a sad pick up. Family went from expecting to have fun with her to making arrangements to get her ashes back to Germany.

Don't wanna throw a clot before they get the lai on me...do they still do that?
