I probably have less than twenty flights total under my belt, so it's still a bit of an adventure for me.
All my flights have been rather mundane, but today, about half way into our flight, somewhere over Kansas, I looked out the window and saw another Northwest airliner not half mile away!!! I want to say a quarter mile, but that should be impossible...
Is that normal? If we were headed NE, then they were maybe headed due West. I've never seen another plane in the air while I was wheels up before. Kinda freaked me out a little. I could see windows and some details of the plane.
Anyone else got stories?
I'll read them after I land in Grand Forks... Not before.
