For example, the Concorde flies at supersonic speed.A businessman can leave Paris at 11 a.m. in the morning and arrive in New York at 8 a.m. thesame morning in time for a day's work. Many business people in Europe will fly to London for anoon morning in time for a day's work. Many business people in Europe will fly to London for anoon meeting and then return home to Rome or Madrid for dinner.
　　It is always exciting to take a plane trip. When you take a trip by plane, you know that youmight cross many time zones, many oceans, and many countries. When you get off the plane,you could be in a place that speaks a different language. A plane is like a magician's trick. Youget in a box and you come out somewhere totally different.
　　Nothing can beat the convenience of a plane. In the old days, it might take you days todo what the plane can do it an hour. Boats, for example, only leave on certain days of theweek and take a long time to get to their destination. Planes give you the option to leaveseveral times a day and get you to your destination quickly.
