This ep about a plane landing and no crew aboard. Is this ep rational or still mysterious? When Sheckly quits the delusion (if that is what it was) how did he know exactly what Bengston and Malloy looked and sounded like (even the critics reviewing the ep wanted to know that)? He even knew largely what they were dressed like. Did he see them from a distance that day earlier at the airport and they did not notice him back?
What about the luggage guy at the airport in the"delusion'. Was he real too? And the guy that signaled the plane in? Real or imaginary? I 'll write more later. Gotta go.

OTOH could it be that Sheckley went through a different dimension and ended up in a parallel universe when he stuck out his arm in front of the plane and it vanished (along with the airport men). This interpretation is not likely as there is no mention that the airport is doorway through different dimensions (or something like that). Could Scheckly somehow have altered the past when he caused the plane to vanish? This seems real unlikely (less so than a parallel universe entry).

The most logical assumption seems to be that Sheckly in fact imagined the whole thing up until the plane vanished. He knew who Bengston and Malloy were from when they really had greeted Penny Jackson at the airport in front of a crowd(that is what Sheckly was doing at the airport) this happened before he heard she came off flight 107 from Buffalo then he got deluded, stayed around the airport (or nearby) until nightfall when he (in a deluded state ) went into the hangar. All other theories do not fit hardly at all.

Most likely the man handling the luggage and the guy who signaled the plane did work at the airport for real but their names (one of which was Robbins) we heard in the ep were just Sheckly's imagination.

I like this episode, still mysterious to me.
