The fact that these pilots always (seemingly) remain cool as a cucumber, despite the fact that someone just tried to murder them and 82 other people, always amazes me.

- paulddraper 3y agoIt's absolutely incredible. You can listen to pilots moments before they are about to die and they are nearly universally calm and collected. I like to remember that when things are figuratively on fire.
