You ignored the words in the quote you were replying to?!

It would seem to the traveller as a short period of time, but to his original reference point it woul dbe 4 years.

Am I right in thinking this is actually observable with atomic clocks travellinglong distances in planes and landing slightly slower than there stationary counterpart, or have I just made that up?

this has actaully been tested. The clocks were very slightly off.
