Dangerous Flight Maneuvers at U.S. Airports?
SelectPlusDangerous Flight Maneuvers at U.S. Airports?Dangerous Flight Maneuvers at U.S. Airports?The Associated PressEach year thousands of planes are forced to pull up at runways at major American cities. The maneuver is called a 'go around.' As Ted Shaffrey reports, some are concerned about the safety of this practice.((Newark, NJ)) Last December Howard Kronberg (Krawn-berg) was a passenger on a flight about to touch down at the airport in Newark, New Jersey, when he feared his life was over. ((Howard Kronberg, Airline Passenger)) "It's a catastrophic accident waiting to happen." The pilot was forced to pull up suddenly, aborting the landing, because another plane hadn't cleared the runway ahead of it. "We immediately climbed drastically to altitude." NATS: go around. They are called "go arounds" and they happen thousands of times a year at U-S airports, according to an Associated Press review of tower logs from eight of the nation's busiest airports. It's when air traffic controllers clear a plane to land but have to abort the landing, and order the plane to circle around. They are a symptom of severe air traffic congestion. At some airports, controllers say they increase the risk of a mid-air collision with another aircraft. NATS: Controllers like Mike Reilly, who works at Newark Liberty International Airport, say they are unavoidable. ((Michael Reilly, Air Traffic Controller)) "You got a get it right the first time, if you don't, you gotta take the safe route and send one around T AKE VO: You better be good, and we are good, but it's not fun, it gets your adrenaline going, a little too much going." Controllers say they are under a lot of pressure to keep traffic moving. "There's pressure, the airlines gotta spend a lot of money on gas these days, the more they are in the air, the more gas they are using, they want the planes on the ground." With growing demand from the public for air travel, it's not clear how the congestion problem can be fixed. And from airport to airport, controllers say there are no clear cut procedures how to deal with "go arounds." "we wanna do it standardized, not by the seat of our pants, which is what we're doing now." The F-A-A says it is reviewing "go around" procedures at several U-S airports, after the N-T-S-B called "go around" procedures at some of them, deficient. Something passengers like Howard Kronberg say they already knew. Ted Shaffrey, The Associated Press, Newark, New Jersey

Flight of the Conchords Ep 4 If You're Into It
If you want me to
I could hang 'round with you
If I only knew
That's what you're into.
You and him
Him and you
If that's what
You're into
Him hanging 'round
Around you
You're hanging 'round
Yeah, you're there too.
And if you want me to
I will take off all my clothes for you
I will take off all my clothes for you
If that's what you're into
How 'bout him
In the nude?
If that's what
You're into.
In the nude in front of you
Is that what you'd wanna view?
If it's cool with you
I'll let you get naked too
It could be a dream come true
Providing that's what you are into
Is that what
You're into?
Him and you
In the nude?
That's what he's prepared to do
Is that the kind of thing you think you might be into?
And then maybe later
We get hot by the refrigerator
In the kitchen next to the pantry
You think that might be what you fancy?
In the buff
Being rude
Doing stuff
With the food
Getting lewd
With his food
We heard that's what you are into
Then on our next date
Well, you could bring your roommate
I don't know if Stu is keen to
But if you want we could double-team you
How about you
And two dudes?
Him, you and Stu
In the nude
Being lewd with two dudes with food
Well, that's if Stu's into it, too
All the things I'd do
The things I'd do for you
If I only knew
That's what you're into

southwest flight attendant (pls read description)
i was a PASSENGER on this flight from LAX to Chicago MDW. it was quite entertaining and had people laughing. i couldnt record the flight attendant b/c he was not visible to me, so i just recorded the sunny southern california weather. enjoy.
just a few comments on this video:
1. it is a real recording, there are some people on youtube who have had this guy.
2. it is southwest airlines, so the demos are not like other airlines.
3. once again, i was just a PASSENGER
4. THIS IS THE ORIGINAL VIDEO!!!! dont think i dont see peoples stealing my video. (thanks to the 2 videos though for the reference)
