I've had a few so so turbulent flights.

But, the scariest one to me was a flight I took on a prop plane from Syracuse to Potsdam.

The winds were VERY strong and I just remember looking out my window on the left side of the plane and realizing that I was looking IN OUR DIRECTION OF TRAVEL!!!

The bitch was basically flying sideways.

Yeah. Not pleasant.

Was flying home from Las Vegas and when we hit max altitude the right engine of the plane starting shooting Sparks and then the plan made a huge jerk and we seemed to be going down for about 30 seconds with the plan being very jerky back and fourth while going down. I was sitting right on that wing and saw the whole thing as we lost the engine. There was a black women screaming in the back" some mother frickers better tell me what's going on". There was radio silence from the pilot for what seemed about 10 mins as after we stabilized altitude the plan was just jerking back fourth and unable to keep the plane straight. After that long period of time the pilot came back over the radio and sounded like he had been scared shite less as well said he was turning the plane around. We landed at the Las Vegas airport with about 30 ambulances and emergency vehicles waiting with lights and sirens going. It was the first time in my life I knew I cheated death and was prob suppose to die if not for whatever the frick that pilot did. He told us we flew back in on a barely working left engine and no right engine.
