I have been a plane spotter for a long time. I love planes and I've been lucky to have an uncle who works for our national airline, so I've been able to see planes up close when they've been in for maintenance. To me planes aren't mere forms of transport. They represent the ultimate in human achievement - the ability to soar above the clouds and over the earth. They're beautiful things (even the new mostly ugly A380 has some redeeming features). Part of the reason I like airports is because I can sit and watch planes, though I have to add there are some miserable airports on this planet that stick up walls instead of windows or viewing terraces. They may as well be bus stations when they do that - though at least you can see your bus at a bus station!
