ANDY T asked:


I have used ant killer on the ones that I see but then more keep turning up. The problems getting so bad that the birds are flying down to eat them. If I block the holes in the wall (they are just below the windowframe) will they find other ways out, I don’t want them to start coming from the walls on the inside. Any suggestions ?

Going to Gran Canaria for 2 weeks and she is terrified of flying, this mornings news isn’t going to help matters, is there any sensible remedies to take, she tried “Rescue” but it didn’t really do anything, were flying at 8:30am so alcohol is off the list, plus they don’t let you fly when drunk! Cheers
Thanks guys and girls been really helpful!

I have a very strong fear of flying and I’ve never flew before but my family and I are planning a trip in the summer in which I will have to fly. How do I not freak out? The trip is 7 months away and I am panicking from just the thought of it!

Rommel asked:


Hello all,

What are some similarities and differences between flying small single or two engine aircraft and driving a car? If someone is a good driver, is he or she also a good pilot? Can you please be as specific as possible? I’m trying to prove a point to my brother. Thanks!
EDIT: I’m talking about General Aviation (i.e. flying that isn’t the scheduled airlines or military, typically “little planes” and “biz jets”). Please don’t make any comparisons to big aircraft. Obviously, those are much harder to control than a car.

I have some credit with Southwest Airlines. I am thinking about flying off somewhere, but I am afraid to fly. How does it feel? Can you explain from takeoff to landing?

lilcleo15 asked:


I’ve never flown anywhere outside of the US, but I’m flying to China in a couple weeks and I was wondering what the differences were, because with a 15 hour flight I dont think that they could pack us in like sardines like they do the within the US flights. I’m flying United so if you know any differences between their domestic and the international flights in particular that would be awesome. Thanks!
