Brave 80-year-old Helen Collins assumed the reins of husband John Collins's small Cessna plane, safely landing the aircraft, after he suffered a fatal heart attack during flight. Aviation employees at Cherryland Airport in Wisconsin guided her on how to land the plane that was low on fuel, as she had no licenses or training. Collins did the best she could and miraculously survived the crash landing, with a cracked rib and injured back.
For years people have dreamed of flying cars, but none have come to fruition thus far. This month, Terrafugia unveiled its version of the flying car. However, the website Slash Gear disagrees, stating it is not really a flying car. The expensive model looks more like a small plane than a car, which has lead to skepticism.
Jetblue airplane captain went AWOL during a flight from Las Vegas to New York. The captain had a mental breakdown, snapped and started screaming about bombs, terrorism and Al Qaeda, which forced the passengers to lock him out of the cockpit and restrain him, lest he accidentally crash the plane.
All I know is I could not have been on that flight. I would be so ticked. You make me late or crash the plane into the ocean, you won't have to worry about sharks or Al Qaeda, because Aisha will get you:
a.) For getting my hair wet after it took me 1 hour to blow dry and style it in the morning (as Ace Ventura would say "No one messes with the do")
b.) For getting my beloved laptop wet - another no no
c.) For getting my suede lined bag wet
News choppers flying over head would report, "An irate black woman was seen beating the captain for ruining her hairstyle, laptop and purse. She was heard yelling, 'All you had to do was fly the plane straight!' He seems to require police protection."
Is Obama Cracking Up Due To Pressure From All Sides
Jan Brewer and Barack Obama
U.S. President Barack Obama, was pictured fiercely arguing with Arizona Governor, Jan Brewer, on the tarmac, as she greeted him in her state. Obama angrily snapped at Brewer for her characterizations of him in her book "Scorpions For Breakfast." Getting into a heated argument with a woman in public is not a good look for a president.
Brewer's viewpoint on immigration is bad, but she did have some good points on health care. She is an inflammatory character, who at times sounds like a bigot, but President Obama needs to remember he is a man and what the public will see is him bullying a woman.

Model and blogger, Lauren Scruggs, survived a very serious physical and emotional trauma, after walking into a plane propeller at night, after taking a flight in a small plane to view Christmas lights in Texas last year. Yesterday, a terrible 911 tape was released of the incident that left many shaken. Scruggs was heard crying, wailing and moaning in anguish, after the propeller cracked her skull, destroyed her eye and severed her hand.
Remarkably, she survived, even when the paramedics feared she would die due to the extent of her injuries and began praying for her. Scruggs should do an interview to talk about her survival and to clear up misconceptions about the accident, as there are rumors out there that do not seem true.
