Bounce Landing
Off to jolly ole England...
So it's a little cloudy (and slightly rainy sometimes) this time of year in London. You know how planes hit turbulance going through clouds? Well we had an interesting trip...hit the cloudy turbulance on the descent - bouncy, bouncy, bouncy (though Sparky didn't think of it as that - as the claw marks in his arm rests would indicate). Then just when you think it's over and you're subconsicously bracing yourself for that hard stop when the plane hits the runway. Our pilot decided to have a little fun (?) because we hit down, bounced hard up, and then hit down even harder. I can't believe we didn't blow a tire on that second hit (mental note, buy stock in those airplane tire companies). It was a hard enough hit that made you bounce at least a good 1/4 inch off your seat. Come to a roll, quick trip to the stopping place, disembark. It was all I could do to not walk by those pilots on the way out, as they're saying "Thank you, fly again with ****Air" and just go "WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT"
