The right wing started wobbling wildly and the captain came out to take a look with a concerned look on his face. The flight attendant got on the intercom and cheerily informed us not to worry: This had happened last week and they put down in Salt Lake City. The wobbles stopped when the plane slowed and we put down in Denver with a parade of emergency vehicles flashing lights all around us.Looneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15801436449971512320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27352415.post-81828787241630697522010-04-15T12:59:44.059-07:002010-04-15T12:59:44.059-07:00I hope you never have to use these Nene---In any e...I hope you never have to use these Nene---In any emergency number 1 is number 1...Dee Ice Holehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15032789905335661368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27352415.post-71978795723015599712010-04-15T08:07:08.298-07:002010-04-15T08:07:08.298-07:00those ARE good tips and info - it'll make me p...those ARE good tips and info - it'll make me pay attention EVERY time the flight attendant gives the instructions - you should read the book The Gift of Fear, it's pretty good and is about surviving stuff and trusting your instinctsAmberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11692897932694365285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27352415.post-83872599084814654812010-04-15T07:43:01.474-07:002010-04-15T07:43:01.474-07:00Thanks for the tips.

Wait, maybe I need to print these out and take with me on the plane....especially if we're flying right after volcanic ash has been in the air. :0+ Whenever I get nervous, I have to keep reminding myself to breathe. :0)Nenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13847303868378288229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27352415.post-72668006467870426562010-04-15T07:30:00.555-07:002010-04-15T07:30:00.555-07:00Hey D,

There are people who freeze before tense situations; but thanks God there is always someone who is cold enough to decide. <br /><br />Tip 2: I think that people know that they are not supposed to panic, but somehow they do: it is as if they couldn't help it.<br /><br />Tip 3: If God decides that we will survive, we will no matter where we sit inside the plane. <br /><br />Tip 4: Faith is vital, no doubt.<br /><br />You did well to share these tips with us, for I too have learned a lot: thanks :D!<br />And may your sister have a pleasant trip :D!<br /><br />CheersMax Coutinhohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12588149349270422294noreply@blogger.com
