Car Rental New Orleans - Miracle on the Hudson


I thought about the survivors and what they thought post crash. I thought about their families. I thought of the people who had survived and the ones that had perished, i read the accounts. Because I have a terrible fear of flying, i do. I do. Kentucky, the plane that crashed a few years ago while taking off out of Lexington, or? I do. How about the airline that crashed into the Potomac River? I do. Do you remember the Value Jet that went down in the Everglades? I knew about almost every major airline crash that has occurred. As I was doing some editing for a project I was working on. I found out about the accident that happened at 3:26 p.m. " The US Airliner plummeted into the frigid waters of the Hudson River. The "miracle on the Hudson River, the media is calling the splash landing that occurred on January 15.

Every time! . . I am just terrified to do so. I share this information to let the reader know that I fly. And then Atlanta to home, my daughters and I spent the night in Atlanta Airport). From London to Newark from Newark to Atlanta (the weather was SO bad that we missed our connecting flight, from Dublin to Wales, from Wales to Dublin, from Newark to London, we flew from Florida to Newark. It was about a fourteen scare! England and Wales, i took a trip to Ireland, a few years back. Two scare meant that I had another means of transportation to arrive back home. It was another scare, when it landed. Every time the plane would take off THAT was a scare for me. Then I would be taking a direct flight and would be going up and then down = two times that I would be scared, if it was a two scare. Etc, eight scare, four scare, i would assign a flight I was taking as a two scare. It was my "scare" system. I developed a system to rate hour fearful I might feel about a flight.

I was SO scared. " I knew they thought I was just going to become totally unglued if they didn't give me something! Maybe this will help you, "Here, she winked at me and said! Nothing. The charge? It wasn't Rum and water but an actual Rum and Coke. The flight attendant finally brought me a drink. (I am a nurse), ativan, but I needed some liquid courage at this point because the lady sitting next to me didn't have any drugs (Xanax, " I had never had Rum with water. "Can I PLEASE have a Rum and water, " I finally asked the flight attendant? Don't be afraid, honey, "Oh, and said, " She laughed. "Do you have any drugs with you, " It was so bad that I asked the lady sitting next to me? There will be no beverages passed except for water. Do not leave your seats for the duration of the flight! "Remain in your seat, it was such a rough flight that the captain told all of us. And I thought that the flight from Memphis to Orlando did me in, ). Louis to Orlando (it was an eight scare! I had taken a flight from St, just a few months ago. I wasn't going to fly any more! I began telling myself that this was IT, after reading everything that I could get my hands on about the 155 survivors of the Hudson River crash!

" "I am not flying any more, it was then that I told me daughter! Infants and children on board like any typical flight would hold, and how there were women, how the men and women who worked on the ferry boats in the Hudson River had helped rescue people, i was telling her how the pilot had been a former military pilot. I was telling her every detail. She hadn't heard about the crash as she hadn't had her television or computer turned on in the last day or so. Who was my partner in fear of flying, i called my daughter Sarah. I didn't know that I should have also read about birds flying into and getting caught in engines. Etc, if it causes airplanes to crash. . . What causes it. . . I have went on line and I have read all about turbulence.

" We almost died yesterday, "Mom, she said! She was fumbling for the seat heater button when all of a sudden she glanced up and saw a huge tow truck about fifty feet from their car! But it was now a little over 3 degrees outside in Pittsburgh and the deep chill could be felt in the car despite the regular heating system, my daughter had never used that feature in her automobile. She shared that her husband wanted some heat on his seat. She then told me about an incident that had happened just the other day. " my daughter said, " "Surely not. Do you really think that she thought that this was going to be her last day? "Last year a girl died moments after riding a roller coaster. " she said, "Mom. My next to the youngest daughter was able to jerk me back to reality when I declared that I wasn't going to fly any more. This recent airline crash tested my ability to have faith while flying. My daughter and I are both women of faith.

They survived the Miracle on the Hudson, after all. . . They would probably even board a US airline plane . Will once again board a plane, i am sure many of the passengers who escaped near death on Flight 1549. We won't live, otherwise, we can't live in fear. Choking on a hamburger or falling on ice. . . Every day people die from what would be deemed a ridiculous cause . It will be MY time, i will still be scared every time that I board a plane for take off but I will also keep in mind that when it is my time. I will still use my scare system. Flying is quick and relatively inexpensive. It is safer than driving per all mathematical calculations. Or the more recent US Airline that hit the Hudson River deter me from flying, the Everglades tragedy, i have decided that I won't let the Lexington crash. Be prepared, so. Jesus tells us that we know not the time or hour that will be our last, in the Scriptures. I am a Christian.
