Flight To Nowhere A Popular Ticket In India
Simulated Airline Flight Gives A Taste Of Travel
You know, we as Americans really are spoiled. Here, we sit and complain of long delays stuck onboard commercial airliners... while there are those in India willing to pay good money to simulate the very privilege of flight.

According to the travel blog WorldHum.com, a retired Indian Airlines engineer has set up a full-fledged travel simulator -- comprised of bits and pieces of an Airbus A300 -- to allow Delhi residents to experience "virtual journeys" for the nominal price of $4.

Tickets for the "flights" are very popular. The Times of London reports 99 percent of India's population has never set foot on an airliner... making the simulated "flights" truly something special. And that was Bahadur Chand Gupta's intent.
