"The state of the world being as it is, the fabled Mile High Club seems a reminder of the past, the swinging 60s and whatever the 70s were about. While the new paranoia brought scrutiny that seemed likely to end airborne frolics, Rachel Kramer Bussel?s anthology The Mile High Club is a ray of hope for the altitudenaly inspired.
Most of the stories in Mile High Club are contemporary, but Craig Sorensen?s ?Top Banana? goes back to the days when stewardesses were hired for their looks and portrayed in media as bimbos. Those were the years when traveling salesmen got out of their cars and took to the skies. Subject of countless bawdy jokes, meet career gal in a mini skirt. No wonder the public imagination flew with that combination. But in Craig?s story, the stewardess is tired of her male passengers? sense of entitlement, and on her last flight, she teaches a horny salesman a lesson he never forgets.
Donna George Storey creates consistently wonderful stories. ?Her Nasty Little Habit? is my favorite of the sex in the seat stories in this anthology, although Rachel Kramer Bussel?s ?Urgent Message? and Ryan Field?s ?Bert and Betty? are damn hot reads too.
If you like a bit of domination, try Bill Kte?pi?s ?34B,? Matt Conklin?s ?Wild Child,? or ?Obedient? by Teresa Noelle Roberts.
Thomas Roche?s ?When Your Girlfriend Wears a Very Short Skirt? deserves special mention. Thomas is an incredible writer, so I tend to have higher expectations for his stories than for writers I don?t know. Much lighter in tone than most of his work, this one delivers.
Speaking of writers I?ve come to expect a lot from, Alison Tyler also contributed to this anthology. She may not know me, but she definitely has her fingers on several of my hot buttons, and I can?t recall a story of hers that didn?t push at least one. Her ?Planes, Trains and Banana-Seat Bicycles? doesn?t take to the skies, but there are planes involved. In her skillful hands, that?s all you?ll need to fly.
?Wing Walker? by Cheyenne Blue is the most original story in the anthology. The biplane pilot from an aerial show tells his wing walker that he?s going to find her a lover. She laughs off the offer, and as months pass, he doesn?t follow through?until he does. On a practice flight meant to test the newcomer?s skills out on the wing, he shows her that he has moves she?d never imagined. This may be a flight of fancy, but it?s a good one.
It?s impossible to think of sex in a passenger plane without also imagining the danger and embarrassment of being caught. If two people head for a lavatory, everyone notices, or at least it feels as if they do. So even if joining the mile high club never appealed to you in real life, your inner voyeur or exhibitionist may feel a frisson of excitement in all the right places as you read these stories."

Introduction: Flying High
The Mile High Club is, for many, the stuff of legend, but I?m here to
tell you that where there?s a will, there?s a way. Flying can bring
out so many of our insecurities, fears, and frustrations, that it?s
natural we?d want to find a way to relieve all that tension by getting
it on. Indeed, several of the stories here deal with sex as a way to
conquer a fear of flying.
Just as I was completing this volume, I got a call from a friend who
told me that on the way back from a family vacation, he got it on with
a woman he ran into on the plane whom he?d known, but never slept
with. They managed to have full-on intercourse (and much more) as the
rest of the passengers sleptæor so they thought! They found out later
that they?d been true exhibitionists, seen by horny voyeurs.
In these stories, characters are often surprised to find themselves
engaging in such risqué behavior midflight. The surprise and
naughtiness make what?s happening even hotter. For others, it?s been
carefully orchestrated, such as the woman meeting her online pen pal
in ?34B? or the one putting her arsenal of sex toys to good use in
?Obedient.?
Other scenarios are more fanciful, and, unless you?re really lucky,
are probably not going to happen to you. Part of the thrill of even
thinking about the mile high club is that in such close quarters,
someone?s bound to notice the movements, noises, and sensations of sex
happening near him or her. Voyeurism and exhibitionism are part and
parcel of sex on a plane, even if you never officially get caught.
I?m sure you are probably picturing getting it on in a tiny airplane
bathroom, and yes, that happens here. But there?s more than one way to
join the Mile High Club, as the ?Wild Child? in the story by Matt
Conklin learns when her kinky new friend asks for some extra ice. And
in ?Bermuda Triangle,? we?re introduced to a threesome that takes edge
play to new heights, as a man is blindfolded and instructed to fly,
his fear upping the ante for the novel sexual encounter about to take
place.
While this isn?t a how-to manual, I?m sure you can pick up a few tips
on the fine art of blanket placement and in-flight discretion from
these talented writers. Alas, during the numerous flights I?ve taken
in the last year, nothing so risqué has happened to me, but that
hasn?t stopped me from fantasizing about what might be going on a few
rows over, or wondering, as I stand in the security line, who might
try to pick me up. I love that Wi-Fi is the wave of the flying future,
as I write about in my story ?Urgent Message,? and I?m looking forward
to much in-the-air flirting.
Whether you?re a member of the Mile High Club or just want to be, I
hope these stories take you on some exciting trips, and that your next
plane ride is just as eventful! Please feel free to share your story

More than just pilots and stewardesses
With a name like "The Mile High Club," should I expect notes on a song by Bow Wow Wow or a Liz Phair video? Knowing it's an anthology of erotic short stories, I have a few ideas: sexy stewardesses in skintight skirts, proud pilots with prodigious... pants. Of course, I could be wrong.
The anthology edited by Rachel Kramer Bussel is more than pilots and stewardesses, although they do feature in a few stories. Most of the stories involve passengers. Lavatory trysts, alluded to on the cover of the book, are pretty common, though the authors get pretty inventive. Another common method for sex in the sky involves passengers seated next to each other while covered by a common blanket. However, these illicit affairs are unneeded in a couple of stories, such as "Flights of Fancy", which features an airline devoted to sex, and "Get On, Get Off" which introduces the idea of Masturbation Class.
Getting away from the airlines, we are presented with "Bermuda Triangle" which features a female flight instructor and two male students who do everything she says. "Wing Walker" takes the idea of sex in flight to a new level, when a couple engages in activities on the top wing of a biplane. One story, "Planes, Trains, and Banana Seat Bicycles," doesn't involve sex in the skies. While it is a great story, it seems a bit out of place in this book.
All of the stories are good or great. Although they only averaged about 10 - 12 pages each, these nineteen sexy short stories only scratched the surface of the Mile High Club concept. I hope to see follow-up anthologies, because I think there is a lot of uncharted territory in this area. Maybe in the future we can read stories with helicopters. Flying boats. Dirigibles!
a little something for everyone
Whatever your need, there's certainly a story to fulfill it in the latest collection of erotic stories edited by Rachel Kramer Bussel. Not only are these stories tantalizing to read, they're well written as well! Too often in the world of erotica, you find yourself reading poorly written smut.
From the deliciously naughty 34B by Bill Kte'Pi to the well written Planes, Trains, and Banana-Seat Bicycles by Alison Tyler, I found a few stories that pulled me in, set a scene and gave me great characters to connect with. Thomas S. Roche's When Your Girlfriend Wears a Very Short Skirt should not be missed, either.
If you're looking for a solid collection of erotica stories, look to those edited by Rachel Kramer Bussel. The Mile High Club: Plane Sex Stories does not disappoint.
Stylish and sexy
This series of vignettes are well written and varied. Each story brings another fantasy to the reader. They are all believable and that makes them that much more interesting. Even better is reading them on a plane ride and wondering if anyone on the plane is creating the basis for a new story!
