One common theme is magic. It often plays a central role, like in 'The Lord of the Rings' where there are powerful wizards and magical artifacts. Another theme is the journey. Characters embark on grand adventures through strange lands. And the theme of good versus evil is also prevalent, with heroes facing off against dark forces.
J.R.R. Tolkien is very famous. He created 'The Lord of the Rings' series which is full of rich fantasy elements. C.S. Lewis is also well - known for 'The Chronicles of Narnia'. And J.K. Rowling, with her 'Harry Potter' series that has enchanted millions around the world.
Once I was on a standby flight. I got to the airport super early, like 4 am. I was all excited to get on the flight. But they kept delaying the standby list announcements. Finally, when they did, I was number 20 on the list and there were only 5 seats available. It was so frustrating. I ended up having to wait another 5 hours for the next possible standby chance.
Some of the recent important flight matters in China's aerospace industry included:

Flights novels often feature detailed descriptions of airplanes and flying. For example, they might describe the mechanics of a plane, how it feels to be in the cockpit during take - off or landing.
Definitely 'Sully'. His quick thinking and calmness in landing the plane on the water saved so many lives. It's a great example of human skill and determination in a flight situation.
One horror story could be constantly getting bumped from standby flights due to overbooking. Passengers end up waiting for hours or even days at the airport, missing important appointments or events. It's a nightmare when you've planned your trip around a standby flight only to be left stranded.
Well, 'Apollo 13' can be considered in a way. It's about the real - life spaceflight mission that faced numerous challenges. Although it's a spaceflight, the principles of flight and the courage of the astronauts are very much relevant. It shows how a flight - related mission can be turned into a remarkable story of survival against all odds.
Delays are a big problem. For standby flights, you might be waiting for hours or even days because the flight gets delayed due to various reasons like weather or technical problems. And all that waiting around in the airport is just dreadful.
