Aircraft
A flying machine that costs more than your entire house
Aircraft (also known as “sky trucks” or “flying sardine cans”) are a mode of transportation that allow humans to defy gravity and experience the thrill of soaring through the clouds.
Despite being one of humanity’s greatest technological achievements, aircraft are also infamous for being the subject of countless airline horror stories. From screaming babies to rude passengers, flying on an aircraft is often an exercise in endurance.
But fear not! If you’re lucky enough to snag a first-class seat, you’ll have access to amenities like unlimited champagne and caviar, which will help ease the pain of being crammed into a tiny airplane seat for hours on end.
And let’s not forget about the pilots - those brave men and women who pilot these beasts through the skies. It takes nerves of steel and the ability to survive on nothing but peanuts and stale pretzels to make it in the world of aviation.
So the next time you find yourself hurtling through the air at 30,000 feet, take a moment to appreciate the wonder of human accomplishment that is the aircraft. Just don’t forget to wear your noise-cancelling headphones.
