Oh come on guys, when you are in a boat do you say you are swimming? I don't think so! So how is ridding in a plane flying? You have to get out of the plane to fly! The plane is just a ride to altitude! Try skydiving, it's cheaper and unlike piloting a plane, you really are flying! (You will not have a great glide ratio however;-)

To Fly - verb - To engage in flight, especially:
To move through the air by means of wings or winglike parts.
To travel by air: We flew to Dallas.
To operate an aircraft or spacecraft.
To rise in or be carried through the air by the wind:

Fall - verb -
to drop or descend under the force of gravity, as to a lower place through loss or lack of support.

Which one sounds more like skydiving?

That's why it's called skydiving.
