Well the day came upon us that we thought
we were safe, using our technology like we
always did not minding that it was a luxury
nothing more nothing less .But to others in
fact technology was something they would
never know at all.

One day as I took my place on the huge new
747 plane they rolled out today I could not in
fact believe that I'd was the pilot of this new
plane they just rolled out,me .

I took my seat and took a deep breath I look
at my co-pilot and he smiled at me,we both
turned and saw it was going to be a clear to
beautiful day to fly, I was happy I made it yes.

The passengers continued to be seated as
well as the luggage and supplies we double
check our checklists too be sure everything
was alright to fly and we waited .

Suddenly after what seemed like hours we
were told to take off and we did .We made
it down to the runway and waited for the all
clear sign so we can take off .

Then before we knew it we were in the air
and flying high, I couldn't beieve it either and
I loved the way the plane was operating the
best one I ever flew . It was indeed clear sky
ahead and we were both please ,clouds were
there ahead of us,but nothing to  worry about .

Visibilty was clear and we were flying straight
and true and true as anyone could be,but then
as we were halfway to our destination the un-
hinkable had happened,the plane started rea-
cting unsteadily,jerking back and forth,and it
started acting like it was going to break apart
but that couldn't be to the 747, best plane in the
world was check and double check all the way
through and suddenly we thought we were safe
but we weren't,something was wrong .

I looked at my co-pilot but he was confused as
me but we continued to pilot the plane and our
first and foremost concerned was the safety of
the passengers,was what was happening going
to put them in any danger,no one knew no one .

We were pilots not engineers . And like anyone
can expect passengers wanted too know what
the hell was happening if they were safe or not
 if they wanted to know if the plane was alright
taking a deep breath I reach for the microphone
and cleared my throat . What would I say ?

I looked at my co=pilot and he shrug both of his
shoulders,he was at a loss for words too . So in
fact I suddenly felt uneasy only the second time
in my life now what to say to the passengers  .

I then thought of the words I would say and also
ponder what words of encouragement would I'd
like too have to heard at this time,any as a matter
of fact  .

After a few words of encouragement to the rest
of the passengers and crew also, I wished I had
some left for myself,but that was not to be . I just
prayed a silent prayer and hope we solved what
was happening too the plane soon before it went
down and us with it , I couldn't die not yet anyway .

Suddenly I saw before us looking out of the just
cleaned window clouds that were gathering,not
just any clouds either they were black,black as
night and they were building, maybe the thunder
from those clouds was what was vibrating us to 
they looked rather mean to I say, but we had no
choice going around them would mean taking in
fact us off course going through would mean just
a rough ride,not for the crew of course,for those
of the passengers they might not be use to it .

I looked at my co-pilot . Ahead we go . Hang on  .

I'd tried too take control of the plane trying too fly
it easier for the passengers so to they wouldn't be
so scared or freightened .

But the storm ahead had other ideas and one way
or another it was going to make it rough for all of us
and I prayed to myself a silent prayer and hope that
was enough but the storm was rough .

' This is all I need,' said the co-pilot,' Damn thought
this would be smooth flying today,told my wife I'd
try and be there .'

' Be there for what ? '

' Our anniversary,ten years five months .' he said .

' If we make it through this I'll buy you guys dinner
on me,' I told him and he smiled at me nodding he
then turned back his attention to the plane .Then
the plane rocked again,this time with tremendous
force shaking not only us but the passengers too.

I focussed my attention ahead . Plane was hard to
pilot but not at all as hard as the passengers were
still coping with it,I thought of reassuring them too
again,but I think they perferred me doing my job in
fact then talking about it . So I did my best we tried
to fly the 747 the best we knew how . After all right
now there was no one else to fly the plane but me.

 Me and my co-pilot had to fly the plane,we also in
fact had lives that were depending on us and we'd
both knew it was us or the alternative,and even me
I never like the alternative ,which was death .I had
to make sure I could and will land this plane safely
or the best I could at least .

to be continued part ll .
