Essay on “A Journey in An Aeroplane” Complete Essay, Paragraph, Speech for Class 10, Class 12 and Graduation and other classes.

A Journey in An Aeroplane

Flying in an aeroplane is an experience most people consider interesting and exciting. Like everyone else, I also wondered how a huge object, several meters long, wide, and high, weighing scores of tonnes, could lift itself off the ground and fly for long periods of time with absolute grace and with seemingly no effort. My mood was, therefore quite buoyant when I flew in an aircraft for the first time, while on a journey from Mumbai to Delhi a few years ago.

The flight was scheduled for early morning, and as directed, I reported at the airport an hour before departure. After the preliminaries, like baggage check-in and security clearance, my fellow passengers and I walked up to the aircraft to board it. At the end of my climb up the ladder, I was warmly welcomed on board by an air hostess and the fight purser, flashing hospitable smiles. They were very politely guiding us, the passengers, to our respective seats.

As I entered the aircraft, I felt that my vibrant mood until then was yielding to one of steadily increasing anxiety and awe. The change in my mood was obviously due to my lack of experience in flying. Ignoring my uneasiness, I slumped into my seat and tried to relax as best as possible.

From my seat near the window, I could see one of the engines, hanging from the aircraft wing, start with a squeaking sound, which a little later developed into a deafening screech. The pilot’s voice was soon on the public address system advising us to tighten our seat belts. After the initial amble, as the aircraft picked up speed, I could see through the window the terminal building vanishing swiftly behind me. Almost immediately afterward, I experienced a gentle jerk, which indicated that the aircraft was airborne. As the aircraft was climbing up to its cruising height, I felt as though a needle was piercing my ears. In a reflex action, I cupped them with my palms. The pain lessened instantly, and in time, eased completely.

I relished the refreshments that were served after the pilot announced that the seat belts could be released. Munching sandwiches and sipping orange juice at thousands of meters above the ground had a rare thrill and excitement about them. Once the refreshments started settling in my belly, my anxiety gradually started dissipating. With a feeling of satisfaction and buoyancy, I took out the newspapers and magazines from my seat pouch to read out my time. The flight was pleasant enough to make me doze off a bit as well.

I was woken up by a request to fasten the seat belts. The plane was nearing its destination and preparing to land there. As I looked out of the window, I could see features like fields, buildings, and roads gaining clarity. After the plane had made a smooth touchdown, with a gentle thud, the sound of the engines steadily lowered until it was reduced to a feeble whimper.

When the aircraft eventually stopped, some distance from the terminal building, I heard the flight commander’s voice instructing the passengers to prepare for disembarking. I heaved a gentle sigh and thanked God for a safe flight. The air hostesses were once again at the door, bidding us goodbye and thanking us for our patronage. After experiencing an hour of tranquility, thousands of meters above the ground, I was back again in the midst of the hurly-burly of Mother Earth!

 

A Journey by Aeroplane

I have always longed to fly in an aeroplane. I expressed this desire to my father. He agreed to take all of us by air. I and my sister worked very hard during our exams. Soon our exams were over. We were sure that we had done our papers well. The results came and both of us secured good positions in our respective classes. My father was pleased with our results. He at once arranged for our aeroplane tickets to Bangalore.

We reached the airport an hour before the time of the flight. After checking in, we went through the security check and reached the boarding area. There we were given the boarding passes. Soon we boarded the bus that was to take us to the waiting aircraft. The bus took us to the aircraft. We got off the bus. There was in front of us the steps that were attached to the open door of the aircraft. We got into the aircraft. We were received at the door by a smiling air hostess. She directed us to our seats. I sat near the window. I could see the airport building from my window. After all the passengers had boarded the aircraft, the door of the aeroplane was closed. The air hostess made an announcement. She told us to tie our seat belts. The aircraft then moved onto the runway. There is started moving with great speed. After a few minutes, we were in the air. I could see the houses and trees grow smaller. We went higher until we were in the clouds. For a few minutes, it appeared that we were floating in the sky. We were served refreshments by the air hostess. She was very polite.

It took an hour and a half to reach the Bangalore airport. When the time came to land, we were once again told to tie our seat belt. Soon the aircraft began to lose height. It made a soft touch down on the runway where it slowed down and eventually came to a halt.

Thus my maiden journey by an aircraft came to an end. I enjoyed my journey very much.
