re: Alaskan Airlines plane had an issue tonight as part of the plane fell apart in the air

I flew so much, short of a crash, I’ve seen it all. We lost a co pilot’s windshield going into Memphis one night. We’ve lost engines, flat tires, oil leaks….new Airbus lost the entire hydraulic system on the fist passenger trip, as we taxied out in Denver. Pilot stood right beside me, looked down and “You’re right, not supposed to sound like that.” We taxied back to the gate.

Got so bad, my wife had an envelope inside the office desk. One million in life insurance and business cards of my attorneys.

Travel Department screwed up on a Trade Show flight back home and had all of Marketing on the plane with me going home. We overflew Tampa airport, too high on the approach. Monday morning there was letter on everyone’s desk.

“From this moment forward no one flies on the same flight with Ray.”
I thought it was funny.
