Space shuttle airplane by 2020?

Unless you’re in first class, business, or were born with wings – flying sucks. Even if you try to forget the obstacle course that is everything between check in and TSA to reaching your terminal and then wading through human carry-on luggage racks lining a smelly, crowded aisle of too-close seats, you still have to endure the actual flight. It’s cramped. The air’s recycled. The food has poop bugs in.. Read More

Fly the fappy skies! Guy tries to ejac. and eject from plane. ’cause – why not?
