Several of these would apply to my two 'home' states...Wisconsin and Washington! LOL!
What you say about looking down on airplanes in flight reminded me of a flight I took a few years ago to Las Vegas...
...the only flight that my ears havnt popped on was the leg from Dulles to Denver.
We didnt get a chance to explore Denver airport as we had to run to our next flight.
I will have to make sure I take a vacation there eventually
