The Levelling Effect Of Flight
One thing you have to say about flying is that unless we're talking about megastars or heads of state who have their own planes, generally speaking, everyone ends up on the same planes, even if in different parts of the cabin.
For celeb-spotting, airports and aeroplanes are fertile ground. I've sat next to some very well-known people in my time, and at the moment (writing aloft for posting aground) I'm sitting across the cabin from a famous film director who has spent a large part of the flight writing copious notes on a yellow legal pad and then using sticky tape to attach the torn off pages and parts of pages together into longer sheets.
It's just a small insight into a way of working, but interesting for all that.
