A few things learned from this thread:

-Odds are you're going to experience a traumatic event at some point flying through Texas, Las Vegas, Hawaii, or Japan.

-Planes (and their pilots) are amazing pieces of machinary and technology that rarely crash even in extreme conditions.

It's remarkable how many people have experienced intense turbulence/weather as a matter of course.

I have flown many times over the years. Only one incident of severe turbulence.

As others, was flying from Vegas to Dallas several years ago. Seems like we flew in a thunderstorm the entire way. Lightening, rapid sudden descents, the whole works. This was a late evening flight. Young woman sitting to my right asked my wife for permission to hold onto my hand. She was terrified, as were we.

Was to connect in Houston for a late flight into Alexandria. We rented a car in Dallas and drove back to Alexandria. Picked up luggage the next morning.

Have flown many times since without incident. Leave tomorrow from Lafayette to Atlanta to Nashville.
