Just Who May Try to                        Stop Us Janet Kuypers 8/20/19 written for National Aviation Day Recent plane crashes have caused many countries to ban the use of one model airplane. We had a flight planned; made sure it wasn’t canceled because of the flight’s scheduled plane. I think back to nine eleven, the days of silence in the skies after the grounding of all aircraft, and just how spooky it was to look up in the sky and see no contrails, hear no engine roars above. Because it doesn’t matter who may try to stop us, flight is in our blood. We may not have wings, but we always want the impossible, since we were little we’d get on that swing, push me faster, push me harder, let’s go higher, I can now see across the world from here. So let’s go.
