Unwrapped Present

The gift that gives back.

Well, actually I’m a two time member of the Mile High Club. The first time wasn’t as memorable. It was the summer of 1986 and I had an English boyfriend and one day we thought it would be fun to fly to Paris for a night (from London). While in route, we discussed interesting places to have sex. We did it in the airplanes bathroom on the way over (kinda cramped and not very comfortable) and in the elevator (or lift as the English call it) upon arrival at our Parisian hotel. The elevator didn’t allow us much time. Too rushed.

My more memorable experience was in 1995 with a different boyfriend. It was his birthday and I thought that as a gift, it would be a nice surprise to introduce him to the Mile High Club. I found out about a private chartered airline in Santa Monica, CA who for a fee would arrange a flight on their private plane just for the purpose of joining the Mile High Club.

This was a gift that gave back. I didn’t tell him where we were going. I just said that we were having dinner at an airport restaurant in Santa Monica. Upon arrival (about 30 minutes prior to sunset), we walked straight through the restaurant and onto the runway where our plane awaited us with a red carpet. I brought some of his other presents with me.

The cockpit and the back of the plane was separated with a divider. In the back of the plane was a bed with beautiful linens and pillows. There was also a couple of seats for takeoff & landing and a table between the two seats. On the table there was a dish full of chocolate covered strawberries it and a bottle of Moet Chandon chilling in a lovely ice bucket. The captain also supplied a CD Player and assorted CD’s (so we could crank up the tunes to drown our noises out).

There was a window between us and the cock pit that could only be opened from our side. I instructed the captain to fly over the ocean during sunset (which he did). And the rest of what happened can be left up to your imagination. We probably did whatever you imagined. At the end of the flight, the pilot presented us with a certificate stating that we were official members of the mile high club.

I know that perhaps my second mile high experience is not traditional but my boyfriend certainly had no complaints and I thought that it was a gift that definately gave back.
