Can I assume it will be a safe flight from JFK to London this spring?
It would appear bombers will be coming FROM London and not TO London.
We also plan to fly home from Ireland. I think that would be much
safer.

Ask yourself how many aircraft have been destroyed by terrorists flying
from London so far this decade.

Now, how many from JFK?

I think you're being more than a little silly.

Is she ever anything else? It's clear that some travelers have more
money than sense! (But if you put your life on "hold" for fear of
terrorists, then the terrorists have won, haven't they?)

No. Cancel your plans.

Actually, anytime one makes plans for the future one is assuming one
will still be alive to carry them out - however young and healthy one
may be, life itself is still a gamble, isn't it?

Er, of course.

I assumed a troll.

No, she's for real, believe it or not! (And apparently has been around
long enough so she shouldn't be as naive as her posts indicate.)

It was a suicidal Egyptian air pilot who ditched
a plane taking off from JFK some years back.
No survivors.

I flew on the same flight a few months before that. It certainly seems
possible to me it was terrorism of a sort (i.e. threat to the pilot) but
it was never definitively proven.

Either that or brilliant trolling.

Nope, "she" is a well-known troll. Yet still people reply seriously to
"her". Still, bit of a laugh if you have time, I suppose.

Make sure it's Northern Ireland you go from and let them friendly guys at
the local irish-pub help you pack your suitcase.

I know it's a month or two over a decade.

From that site I gather that thus far the cause has not been
determined to the satisfaction of the interested parties.


It has to the satisfaction of anyone with half a brain.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe.
Barbeques on fire by the chalets past the castle headland
I watched the gift shops glitter in the darkness off the Newborough gate
All these moments will be lost in time, like icecream on the beach
Time for tea.
