Incredible!

yah, i watched it live on the news. they circled for liek 3 hrs to burn off fuel and went for the landing. I was fking holding my breath expecting a spectacular explosion.

but nope the wheels held fo SOoooo long then they blew in a burst of flame. I totally expected the landing geat to snap like a twig.

but NO! the pilot held it and kept that fucker straight!

unbelieveable!

I actually jumped up and cheered! the newsroom crew also did lol!:thumbsup:

F*ck I hate flying but travel so much for business it's ridiculous. I'm above 100K miles for the year and still have one South America to China trip to go... The shitties flying is always across the caribean flying into or out of LatAm. Always mad turbulence in this belt.

I will say that United is the best NA Airline in my opinion. Especially their intercontinetal 777 service. Air Canada is not bad as well... Their T.O to Lima service in refurbished 767's with the new interior (LED lights etc.) is nice. Too bad their FAs are grosse.

And the one time I thought I was actually going to die was YVR to Varadero in 07'. Just after takeoff the plane went through the WORST turbulence I have ever felt. Not just up dowm but sideways as well... scary shit. vodka is good to put you at ease...
