The aviation industry and indeed the entire aviation world is really something of both an exciting and an interesting enigma.

From beautifully crafted aircrafts to the smartly dressed Pilots and Air Hostesses, from the small sized Cessna planes to the mighty jumbo sized Boeing 747 and the Airbus A380, from waiting at the Airport terminal loading passengers to soaring high gracefully in the skies at above 33,000 feet, flights and aviation related matters are ever so exciting.

If you are an aviation enthusiast who loves planes, flying, travelling, airports, aviation engineering and every other thing in between, this might be a sweet meeting point for all of us aviation addicts on Nairaland.

Younger years, I had a dream: to live within the clouds as a pilot.
Take to the skies with the reckless abandon of a drunken master
Sip wine within the heavenly clouds
Sit with them angels to discuss matters arising
And from up above, watch the sons of men strut and fret upon earth's stage

I sought to pour libations from on high
And bless hearts with heavenly chilled sounds
But here now, I only get close to them heavens through some bottle of fine brew
Or through the welling of a thousand fine words

I am stuck with the wisdom and love for IT
Not the soft touch of an auto pilot press
I'm loving it. Yet still i fly alot. Through the console of a virtual world
Or im been driven around up high by some wanton willow
I yet might dust my child stare someday.
And bring home a sound bird
I am hY. Your Royal hYness!

Beautiful birds of steel!

Hello. I always loved aviation just for the fact that there is a machine that can take you to another country or even a different continent in a matter of a few hours. I always wanted to be close to the sky and these beautiful machines. As a child and a young adult I would read all the magazines about planes and aviation I could find. I still use a website that allows me to download my favorite journals. Magazine download in general is good alternative to save the planet since digital information sources are better for the planet. Also they help me to stay on top of things in the world of aviation. I am currently studying to get an engineering degree that will allow me to build planes like that in the future. It will be a dream
