TURBULENT AIR

**** Long ago my Son & I took a plane trip . This was back in the day when the airlines gave away Cokes & peanuts .

Well , my Son was as excited as a ten year old can be over the prospect of free Cokes & peanuts . He began to put them away as fast as they could bring them .

I warned him about the danger of consuming large amounts of watery Cokes & peanuts but he chose not to heed the advice .

We were sailing along at 30,000 feet when he said " Dad , Dad ".
The distress was clear in his voice as well as in his expression .

Then I heard four faint rumblings that sounded like air being released from a balloon . A toxic vapor seemed to fill the air .

Then things began to happen quickly . The passenger in front of us yelled for the stewardess. He hollered, " We have an electrical fire '.

The Lady across the aisle said ," I smell it too . Oh Lord We are on fire " . The stewardess called for all hands on deck as they franticly searched the over- head compartments for the fire .

The stewardess could not find the fire but did calm the alarmed passengers that the danger was past . The toxic smell was fading & most passengers were able to put away the oxygen masks .

The pilot announced that they could find no evidence of a fire but would have the plane checked out when we landed .

My Son did not have anymore Cokes or peanuts for the remainder of the trip .
