Ugh, I'm glad you're okay. There's a lot of trouble with wind shear here in Dallas.

Glad you're okay, dude.

Sounds like you had the kind of afternoon that I had this morning. http://www.reuters.com/article/newsOne/idUSTRE53Q3S820090427

Nothing like waiting for the plane to drop out of the sky, I tell you.

Glad to hear that you're safe and that all of your innards are where they're supposed to be.

glad I didn't go into downtown Manhattan today after all :).

Oh, joy.

That's a lot of no fun when it happens. Glad you're okay.

Wow, that puts trying to fix a broken website with my work Internet connection bouncing like a kid on a trampoline into perspective. Maybe my day hasn't been so sucky after all?

Wow. Purely by coincidence, F and I caught a documentary about the Delta flight that succumbed to a microburst (and wind shear) at DFW in the mid-eighties. Probably while you were in the air ...

(Wind shear and related meteorological whoopsies on landing: not on my list of favourite things!)

Yuck. I've been through a wind shear, and even with a motion sickness patch, it was not fun. Have a libation on me--and did the passengers applaud the pilot when he got you down?

By the time we finally landed, we'd loitered long enough for smooth air and everyone had gotten over it.

Switzerland, 1983, full power landing in a Swissair MD-80 during a thunderstorm in Zurich on a flight from Sofia. They were almost out of fuel, couldn't loiter or divert, so the pilot put it down hot and hard. Plane pancaked down the runway. Bins opened, luggage spilled, people were throwing up and screaming. Quite something. Thunderous applause when we creaked to a halt.

Oh, yikes. I'm flying into DFW on Friday. I hope you got this week's share of windshear out of the way...
