Air Plane Rid
0 / 41
(1)
Airplane ride.
(2)
Tasha signed a piece of paper which gave her a chance to win a free airplane ride.
(3)
She put her name, address and telephone number on that piece of paper.
(4)
A few days later, she got a telephone call.
(5)
It was the man that was holding the ticket draw.
(6)
Tasha didn't think she would win, but the man on the telephone said she did.
(7)
She listened as the man told her where she would have to go to get her free airplane ride.
(8)
She had to go near the town of Grimsby.
(9)
She was allowed to pick a friend to go with her on the airplane ride.
(10)
Tasha was so happy she asked her twin sister Tanya to go with her.
(11)
Tanya was very excited.
(12)
Neither of them had been on an airplane before.
(13)
When they got to the airplane center, Tasha and Tanya were nervous.
(14)
They knew the airplane was small, so that meant only the pilot and them were going to be in the plane.
(15)
Their mom took a picture of them beside the plane before they left.
(16)
Tasha and Tanya hopped into the plane.
(17)
They put their seatbelts on and got ready for takeoff.
(18)
Tasha got to sit in the very front, right beside the pilot.
(19)
Tanya sat behind Tasha.
(20)
The girls laughed nervously as the plane started rolling down the runway.
(21)
They went faster and faster, trees passing by quickly.
(22)
There was a powerful surge making everyone's head jerk back.
(23)
The plane started lifting off the ground,
(24)
up, up and away.
(25)
They were up off the ground and flying high in the sky.
(26)
It seemed as though they could get anywhere within a matter of seconds.
(27)
They flew from Grimsby to Beamsville, where they saw their high school, then on to Saint Catherine's and then Niagara Falls.
(28)
They even flew over top of their house.
(29)
They took pictures of their house.
(30)
They could see their pond from way up there, too.
(31)
The pilot asked Tasha if she wanted to fly the plane.
(32)
Sure, Tasha said.
(33)
So Tasha took the steering handle and began to fly the plane.
(34)
She didn't really know how to fly it, so when she pulled the handle down, the plane shot upward.
(35)
Both of the girls squealed.
(36)
Tasha leveled the plane and flew smoothly from then on.
(37)
Soon it was time to go back to Grimsby.
(38)
The pilot took over again.
(39)
We braced ourselves as the landing strip got nearer.
(40)
The landing went smoothly, with Tasha and Tanya beaming as they looked out at the ground.
(41)
They hopped off of the plain, thanked the pilot and ran to tell their mum about their wonderful experience.
