A November sunset, circa 2018. Chicago O’Hare airport United terminal, just before my 7pm flight to Ottawa.
Watching this footage brings several songs to mind…
“All my bags are packed, I’m ready to go… I’m leaving, on a jet plane. Don’t know when I’ll be back again.” John Denver - Leaving on a Jet Plane
“But my heart keeps calling me backwards, as I get on the 707… Big ol' jet airliner, don't carry me too far away.” Steve Miller - Jet Airliner
“Out on runway number nine, big 707 set to go. Hear the mighty engines roar - see the silver bird on high. She's away and westward bound - far above the clouds she'll fly.” Gordon Lightfoot - Early Morning Rain
“See the clouds adrift so far below. Ever changing as they come and go… On this airplane comin' home to you. Sometimes I think I've flown my whole life through, as I wing my way to you.” David Gates - Suite: Clouds, Rain
“Revvin' up my engine. I’m like a 747, baby, shiny, lanky, long and lean.” Burton Cummings: My Own Way to Rock
