If you can keep your head...

I hope that if I am ever on a plane with one damaged engine and a window smashed in at 32,000 ft that my pilot sounds as frankly bored with a mundane day at work as Tammie Jo Shults does in this recording of yesterday's incident on Southwest Airlines while she is bringing the plane into land.

ATC: Is your airplane physically on fire?

Pilot: No, it's not on fire, but part of it's missing.

Isn't it a good thing that she persisted with her wish to become a fighter pilot after being turned down by the US Army (she joined the navy).

I had forgotten that bit of GO! And now I want to reread when I have promised myself no rereads until I have read at least two off my unread shelf. Shelves.

I am trying to do something similar and not entirely succeeding.
