My 1st flight experience

My first flight was in November 2005, Manila-Caticlan (Boracay) via Corporate Air.  It was for the 5-day all expense paid company outing to Boracay, courtesy of a very generous employer.
From Manila, we took the morning flight to Caticlan. It was my first time to ride in a small plane.

While waiting for the plane, we ate the free breakfast in the airport. And when the time of departure came, I thought I would be scared, but I was more excited.

When the plane prepared for take off, it started to move really fast (with full speed). I looked around while we're going up in the air. I felt like my stomach lift  and my ear started to hurt a bit.
(Take off: for me, it's just like sitting in a car, then the driver pushes on the gas quickly)

Up in the air, I kept looking at the clouds. I also enjoyed viewing the islands from the top.
They pointed the Boracay Island. Then I felt that the plane was slowly going  down. Then I heard the big bounce when the plane hitted the runway.
And yes, We landed Caticlan Airport safe.

Overall, I enjoyed my first time airplane experience. It's a great feeling.
Thanks to Corporate Air!
