My apologies for the egregious use of caps in the title, but consider me more than concerned that this was very nearly my flight! It left a week before from DFW, headed to Paris, which is exactly what we did. I just hope that the problem was fixed before our flight, or we were in fact on a different plane. Either way, there are certain news stories I wish I just had not run across.
And this is a good sign:
“Airline officials say the pilot thought the loud noises during the flight last month were due to cargo shifting, according to an internal memo obtained by The Associated Press.”
Thus the following exchange:
“Did you hear that Bob?”
“Hear what?”
“That loud bang?”
“Naw. Probably just someone’s souvenir-stuffed luggage. I wouldn’t worry about it.”
“OK. If you say so…”
