Remain calm II

Some times some things just seem to strike a chord.

This is what it's all about, baby! Yes, it's the Fight Club Flight Card. I'd pretty much forgotten about this gem, as I was adrift in a sea of Vicodan at the time.

Airtoons [smacks head] Airtoons Airtoons Airtoons!
"It was fun. I actually felt for a while that I was going to crash and die. It wasn't a bad feeling. It was nothing like a roller coaster, it wasn't physical, it was all mental. It was a nutty thing to feel. I tried not to be dramatic or goofy, but I thought I should take time to think about it. If I did die, it wouldn't matter if I thought about it, but if I lived, I wouldn't want to miss the chance to think about dying." - Plane Crash Penn 6/14/00

"It's a fact that those who know what to do in an emergency have a greater than average chance of surviving a survivable accident. So why not help yourself by reading on..." - Inflight safety
Crash Course. Surviving a small-plane accident.
"The goal is to find universal notions that help us understand something as chaotic and random as turbulence" - Soap film studied for clues to plane crashes
