I think my flight actually took off before yours did.

In 1948, the first commercial flight took off from the local airport.

These flights never took off and were cancelled as of May 19, 2011.

Next comes the question about when your flight will actually take off.

Monday was the first day in a week that all scheduled flights took off.

"I was under the impression that private flights could take off and land at their convenience."

The flight takes off at dawn; that's only a couple of hours away.

On the day the flight takes off you want a news photo of the wife waiting at home, or maybe praying in church.

As I reached the pit the last flight was just taking off.

Instead, under current rules, passenger data is sent in the first 15 minutes after a flight takes off.
