For Thomas, it&#8217;s his first time on an aircraft &#8212; and he can&#8217;t wait because an aircraft is big and noisy, has lots of buttons, dials and gear. Maddy frets about the process &#8212; what time we&#8217;ll leave, how long it will take, what will we do at various stages of the process. I&#8217;d like to think this discrepancy has to do with the almost two-year difference in their ages but, in reality, I&#8217;m pretty sure it has to do with their gender identity, whatever that may mean.<\/p>\n<p>Tom wonders how things work and, when allowed (not on a plane!) will dissemble things to solve that mystery. Maddy focusses on who does what and why. She&#8217;s likely to notice that the airport staff seem preoccupied while Tom will comment on the &#8220;cool&#8221; conveyor belts and security devices.
