A far more interesting experience is when you're flying and suddenly
there is none of that annoying engine noise.

Somewhat less interesting but far more fun is when there's none of that
annoying engine noise for the whole flight, start to finish.

That's called "cruising". Learn it.

Mike is talking about flying gliders. Not really sure what you're talking
about.

"Cruising" is when you are at the plane's best speed. "Gliding" in
flight without power.

I'll help you with any other terms you might like.

And so "cruising" is related to making an entire flight without engine
noise (or power) how?
