I know we skip the traveling when nothing happens, but the chaos of an airport, security, terrorist risk, and then boarding plus the actual flight time can add for some major conflict. You've given us a thorough breakdown of an airport , airplane scene including all the components to up the tension. Well done.Melissa Sugarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16268333458796847721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9133489888936435050.post-32395613313377211642015-08-25T18:58:53.750-04:002015-08-25T18:58:53.750-04:00All in all one must gather enough compelling resea...All in all one must gather enough compelling research to make the story believable.

You're write about that.<br /><br />I think airports scenes or flight scenes do more stories along because the characters are going somewhere and they can certainly reveal a lot of a character too. :)Chrys Feyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11955009490266358041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9133489888936435050.post-31333369883655916672015-08-25T11:37:41.511-04:002015-08-25T11:37:41.511-04:00You're another one who said it's been 10 y...You're another one who said it's been 10 years.

I think it seems cozy and enclosed not like in a small car ready to go off the bridge to my death:) Let's see, there is the time I thought I had closed the bathroom door only to find out, to my horror, that I didn't. The man opened the door and all the people in their seats looked back and saw me in full glory. I was 18..I wanted to die. I recall coming into Frankfurt and seeing the roofs of the homes only for the flaps to move and the plane going up dramatically. There was intense fog and this was happening for an hour. To say we all clapped when we landed would be an understatement-it sounded like we just had seen our lives flash before our eyes...oh wait, I think it did. The last plane ride made me understand the life of the undead sardine in a can. My hubby on one side and a nice old man on the other who had not seen a tub in 10 years and felt compelled to slowly kill me from the undead stench coming from his mouth. I felt like throwing some mints into his mouth but I don't think that would have worked.Birgithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09439720285857050428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9133489888936435050.post-58231836237920968672015-08-24T23:39:34.623-04:002015-08-24T23:39:34.623-04:00I used to enjoy flying for the excitement of seein...I used to enjoy flying for the excitement of seeing new places at the other end. Now, the dominant features are the waiting, and being treated like cattle at every stage of the journey.<br /><br />As for which parts to include or leave out, the big question for me is always - how does this scene move the story forward? Does is reveal something about the world or the character? Does it give you an opportunity to introduce some set-up for later - some seemingly unimportant observation that will become important later on?Botanisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12098709722475364465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9133489888936435050.post-22603094921324663782015-08-24T23:30:53.864-04:002015-08-24T23:30:53.864-04:00All great ideas for writing about flying :) I'...All great ideas for writing about flying :) I'm not a flyer.
