Ah honey, you are in good hands. Didn't anyone ever tell ya ... in case of a REAL emergency a prop plane can land anywhere. Yup ... you are much safer in one of those than a jumbo jet for surviving the flight in the event of a crash landing. Now, ain't I making ya feel better???? The problem lies in how well ya survive the flight .......... cause the ride can sometimes can pretty bumpy !!! Just wear you seatbelt the whole time, only fill your glass half full .......... and hang on to your jewels cause they can giggle off to who knows where .......you'll be just fine !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No kidding Jonny? Holy cow. I didn't know any of these survived. Thought they were still grounded........ Actually, prop aircraft are the safest. Charlie

| Thanks all for posting but im going with Nancy's post, even though she has me hanging on to me jewels her post is some what comforting. plus my bro (B-52 pilot) tells me that a smaller plane is safer (just sit in the back) cause if it has the right speed and altitude it can glide in for a landing of some kind ;D Anyone know if they serve drinks on these puddle jumpers? Ill be tanked even before I get on but I need to keep it going, no need to worry about driving cause KOP is driving the land wheels....LMAO....*CHEERS* Thanks for the replies. .....................................jonny

Too bad they don't have films on these puddle jumpers. You'll have to watch "No Highway In the Sky" at home. Nothing like a Jimmy Stewart/ June Allyson/ Jack Hawkins film. Just the thing to help you prepare. Comin' in on a wing and a prayer Charlie

Nice to know other people are as paranoid as me. Did you have a series called 'Black Box' on TV in the US. It was all about plane crashes and what caused them. I'm terrified of flying and for some looney reason felt compelled to watch them. Now I take tranquillisers, alcohol, a nicotine patch and a nicotine inhaler and I could fly without the plane! Gets me through it though, just can't walk properly the other end! W the B
