What is the Dream of Flight?

Here is a video from a friend I met online, one of the most inspirational videos i have ever caught eyes on, if you haven't seen it take a look. Let me know how you feel afterward. check it out! :applause:







What he says on the description.

"I created this video back in 2007.

This was the first time I put words as well as images and music together, to try and describe how I feel about Flight. It was fairly daunting when I began trying to put words to the emotions I feel about the wonder of flight. I just wasn't sure poeple would be able to connect with what I was trying to convey. However, I quickly knew it was right on target after my wife and kids had watched it. When it was over I turned to them to ask what they thought about it and none of them could reply because they were all in tears! They then told me it was one of the most beautiful videos they had ever seen!!!

I felt so thrilled that they finally understood why I loved to watch aircraft (and birds) fly so much and I was also thrilled to find it was received so well by many others around the world as well! It will forever be one of my most favored pieces I have had the privilege of creating!"
 
beautifully done...
Unfortunately the dream of flight is still a dream witch only the privileged can pursue in real life, which is why i believe that its our jobs as developers to make that dream in some small way reachable by the masses through fs9x and fsx and even X-plane. Its why we should always be striving to make our work as true to reality as we are capable of doing..

Funny thing is that personnaly, each time I've been actually dreaming about flight, I was never in any kind of airplane. I was sort of levitating and I could feel it just like if it was real.
There's only one thing that provided me a similar feeling, similar sensations. My dream of flight looks more or less like that.
