- jdminhbg 13y agoI don't think that was meant literally. It was an allusion to your subconscious intuition of physics being contradicted.
- jahewson 13y agoThat phrase irked me too. Why the magic around airplanes? Saying "seemingly defy physics" would be a huge improvement, though it retains the tired metaphor. After all, it's a lack of sensible scientific thinking which led to the FAA maintaining this ban for so long!

- coryfklein 13y agoIf it was, I must have missed the punchline. > Don’t start celebrating just yet – this doesn’t mean you can continue playing Candy Crush while waiting for your massive, heavy hunk of metal to defy physics and launch itself into the air as of this very moment.
