My Goodness, it wouldn’t have mattered what the outcome of the landing was I would have died just from sheer terror! I’m so glad you’re ok!

Commando Maggie. Looks like there will be a few of us fighting to sit next to you.

I just wanted to add my little voice that I’m sorry this happened, and I cried so hard when I read about your text. I hope you take a really long bath with a really good drink. Really soon.

You are a rock star and not the least bit insane. I always count how far my seat is from the nearest exit. It is important to know and good thing you told your row mates so they didn’t trip you up, not that they easily could over your shoulder, but better safe than sorry.

I thought I was good just for listening to the safety drill and identifying my nearest exit. Clearly I have some way yet to go.
Glad you’re safe

How scary! Even though I can be a bit of a nervous nelly at times, I tend to pull together very well in crisis type situations as well. Glad you landed safely.

You know, I always fly with a scarf not for smoke-filtering purposes, but to trip, tie up, and/or choke a would-be terrorist. Most of the time, I’m a really non-violent person… really.
