Quote from the captain of British Airways Flight 9: "Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have a small problem. All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get them going again. I trust you are not in too much distress." (source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/…) | |

Feel as comfortable as you can in this seats rather than being stressed listening and looking for every detail. | |
