Mentally, I live in the Sky.

It is as Leonardo da Vinci said,

"For once you have tasted flight you will walk the earth with your eyes turned skywards, for there you have been and there you will long to return."

Whenever a plane passes over within hearing distance, I scan the sky until I spot it. From that moment, my eyes follow it to the horizon, observing its direction, its altitude.

Being in control of such a machine without the limitations of the two-dimensional plain that cars present is an experience one does not soon forget. It's a freedom in the purest of forms, that is why, in my head, I live in the sky.
