Both times，we 46 from Gloucestershire Airport and were in the air for 15 minutes, sitting on 47 looked like a chair. 48 being nervous, I felt a little strange when looking at the propellers(螺旋桨). I was 49 first that it was a 50 dangerous activity and things could go wrong. However，I said，“Well，at 88 what does it 51 ？ You’ve got to go sometime and you might as well go in a flame of glory.”
