A FLIGHT ACROSS THE ATLANTIC OCEAN
It was my first flight across the Atlantic Ocean. It took nine hours to travel from New
York to London. When I was boarding the plane l saw the cockpit. The door was wide
open so I could look at all the instruments, I was a little afraid before take-otr I tried
not to think about collisions on the runway and hijackers. A few minutes after take-off
all my fear was gone. I had a window seat and could watch the beautiful views. The
journey was nice. I once flew by helicopter and it was horrible. Helicopters are so
nojsy' In London I had to go through customs, I was glad that the customs officer
didn't ask me to open my suitcases.
