Default Re: Tokyo flight turbulence hurts 47

I no longer fear death from flying after more than 4,000 flights i have taken to weird parts of the world on third world business over nearly three decades. It was a privilege to fly to these regions (though some of these areas are unreachable now..thank you george bush)

It is rare to find the plane doesn't make it. If it doesn't assume malicious intent. Unless you fly (like i did many times) third world jets where anything is possible because maintenance was neglected.

I have experienced several incidents which were scream inducing, but i'm still alive.

How about we start a thread on freaky flying experiences??
