This is how Ern shows the airplane sign - with her hand up, 2 fingers cross and ‘wu wu’ sound follow by.
Ern gets to see airplane from the balcony (at Poh Poh’s house) like 3-4 times daily though the house is not near to the airport at all. What she knew about airplane is an flying small object up in the sky. Sometimes, she will show this hand sign when she heard the aeroplane sound, signaling to us to bring her to the balcony.
Daddy thought it’s time to introduce the real airplane to her and show her how a plane take off/touch down in a very close view. So off we went to Batu Maung custom area, which is just right opposite the airport and it’s the best place to view the plane and runway.
To my surprise, there were 3-4 families just like us waiting to see the plane when we arrived. Subsequently, it has increased to like 7-8!!
See how close we are to the runway
To our surprise, Ern didn’t show any sign of fear when the plane took off/touched down. Infect, she was equally excited as her Daddy, whom was trying to explain to her the whole take off process.
Guess what, on the next day, Ern remembered her daddy brought her to see the plane because when we asked her ‘where did daddy bring you?”, she showed us the airplane hand sign.

I really ought to take Bryan there too. He loves airplane as well.
yup..when Ashley was about that age, she was so thrilled with airplanes. When she saw one at the airport which was about every other minute, she'd point at the plane and as though made a world discovery, she'd say, " PLane! There! There! There mommy! Plane! Wooooo" and she mimick the taking off of a plane using her hand.
