Answer:
Im not sure about the answer but, here it goes
Explanation:
In the story black aeroplane, author was grateful towards the person who helped him out of the black storm. He showed gratitude towards that person and was eager to meet him and thank him for his help.
But in the story letter to god, Lencho demands 100pesos from god. Postman and his colleauges tried their best to help Lencho. But instead of showing gratitude for their help, he calls them a bunch of crooks.
These differences tell a lot about the characters and their mentality.
