England

My first overseas trip came in the fall when I was sent to England. It involved the trade of a used British airplane with a new Boeing 747. My job was to check the documentation for completion and assure that it was correct.

As the 747 glided on its approach to Heathrow Airport, the skies were rainy and foggy, just what you would expect in England. I looked out of the airplane window and thrilled at those green hills and vales.

This account made me cry, as I'm sure Dad did during the experience. In only 3 weeks, I'll be doing the same, gliding into Heathrow airport, and I'll most surely be thinking of Dad!
