The man must be crazy. To overcome his fear of flying, Mark Malkoff is living on an AirTran jet for a month - yes, a month. He might walk on the tarmac for a bit. But no airport access, or hotels. Just that airplane seat. Late at night he gets to choose any seat he likes - or whichever row he wants.

Mark points out that he could not manage to do this project with in-flight Wi-Fi. Its the GoGo service that helps him endure.

Its something he does - lived in an Ikea for a week. Visited every Starbucks in Manhattan in a day. He's a comedian when he's doing these character building tests. At the end of the month he will probably have spent 286 hours flying. That should be enough to most people off flying forever.
