No Experience Required

The Cessna lifts off from Rafic Hariri International and the city below shrinks into a grid of copper roofs and glass. Sea light fractures along the coastline while the Mount Lebanon range rises like a wall, snow patches and ski runs cutting white streaks into the rock. From a window seat—guaranteed on this high-wing plane—passengers watch the Mediterranean dare them toward the headlands and the mountains push back with deep valleys.
