once one a flight to Menorca those ladys that always smile and take the drinks round they were doing the safty talk and my brother shouted out "i don't want to jump.

I used to think that everytime i flew on a plane i would see God's head poking out of the clouds. I was disappointed when there was no sight of him!

My brother told me that gremlins were always on planes and that could come and get you. He said they lived in the plane's toilet, so I would stay around my mom.

When i was young i used to think that when aeroplanes left a trail of smoke in the air, it was actually their tail fins scratching the top of the sky

I used to believe that the jets that left smoke behind them were making clouds for days when there weren't any clouds and we needed them.

I was 10 when going to Italy on my first flight, and nearing towards the end of the journey the plane literally dropped and shortly after we were coming in to land, well zoom forward 13 years and now going on my second flight and to the USA this time, it was a fantastic flight, but after landing I was slightly disappointed that we hadn't dropped vertically before the landing, what I hadn't realised was that on my first flight it was likely we encountered turbulence and the plane had probably fallen a few hundred feet, I honestly thought the plane dropped from the sky until it was low enough and then just glided into the airport!!! Doh!

Giz (SCARED OF FLYING NOW)

My sister snd i started flying by ourslefs when we were about 6 to go see our family and my aunt told us that if we looked hard enough tha we wouls see care bears so when we went on a plane we would start s 6 and kept lookin for the care bears that lasted till i was 9

I used to love to look out airplane windows at the clouds. I believed that if I jumped out, I would land on them and they'd be slightly bouncy and feel like cotton.

woo hoo!

i used to think that when a plane was flyin over if we would yell ice creaam really loud they would drop me and my older sis ice cream i wasnt the brightest kid

Eric

wehn me and my younger sister were about 5 and 6 (in the 80's) we lived near an airport, i used to tell her the planes were bombers from the war (second world war) and if they heard us moving about underneath them they would bomb us, my sister believed me and i had to come clean when i looked down on the botton bunk and saw my sister had turned blue from holding her breath.

Jo Pope

My cousin told me when I was a kid that that white smoke pattern in the sky that is left by certain planes was really Superman farting in the sky. I believed her.

Allie

i used to believe that when people went on planes, the plane would come to your front yard to pick you up. i never knew about airports.

rachel

i believed like when i was 3 yrs. old i thought that air planes would come to your house to pick you up!

Brooke

I used to always want to go to the airport even if I wasn't going anywhere and every time I go I used to think I was getting closer to the counrty that person was going.

When I was young my mother told me that airplanes would land on people roofs and lay eggs to have baby planes I of course said nooooo, so then she took me outside and there were egg shells all over the sidewalk I was convinced for a year that planes did lay eggs on peoples roofs

Melissa

I used to belive that when you push the flush button on the airaplane toilet a hole would open in the bottom of the airplane and shoot everything out, so I used to push the button and jump back so I wont get sucked in..
Thats how I explained the noise and the air presure

I also belived all the poop and pee would shower down on the people below and I asked at the airlines once, did I get some weird stares or what!

Anon

I used to believe that by just shutting the door to the airplane bathroom would cause the "occupied" sign to come on. I didn't realize you had to lock the door first.

Valerie

if heavy people went on a plane i thought that it would tip over.
