What was that old line? " if it's not Boeing, I'm not going!"

Not much but luck holding that tail on.. The 737 "convertible" of Aloha was just as amazing.Nev

From our comfortable, safe perspective it's near impossible to grasp the courage, determination and desperation behind survival stories like this. The occasional acts of chivalry in war inspire me. I have been trying to get an author mate to write a book on examples of kindness during conflicts. Is chivalry dead?

I don't think so OK. The behaviour of the cabin attendants on the 9/11 flights is a case in point. Nev
