No, for a number of reasons:
1, I haven't been on a plane since August 22, 1974.
2. I can't take a long flight due to circulation problems in my legs
3. I don't want to fly, because there is no place that I want to see
bad enough to taker any long trip.
4. I don't have the money to waste on a plane ticket.
