Here is my plane story about a near death experience:

My youngest daughter who is now 23 and my wife and I were visiting my father in Law at a Palm springs golf resort he belonged to. We were boarding our plane to San Jose Airport from Palm Springs and I asked the plane if it was going to crash like I always have now since I learned I could do this and get a good answer. You see, planes and metal things like Rocks are similar to angels in that they already know their futures and their pasts and their presents. Trees are like this too. Only humans because we have to be so in the moment don't always know their futures.

So, I asked the plane whether it was going to crash on this flight and it told me that though the flight would be very rough, no one would die or get injured. I said "Okay. If no one dies or gets injured I can handle that and so can my family.

So, we took off and I was kind of wondering just how bumpy the flight was going to be from what the plane said. So, we are in a landing pattern for San Jose Airport and since I had a window seat I looked out and so another passenger jet flying near our right wing. I turned to another passenger and said, "There's a plane on our right wing. That's not good!" And the passenger said to me: "There's a plane on our left wing too!" And they were worried because both of us realized there was no where for the plane to go in an emergency but up or down and that's all. I soloed in a Cessna 152 in 1989 so I understand a lot of this as a pilot.

So, all of a sudden the plane went straight up like a rocket taking off. My 2 or 3 year old daughter was going "Whoopee!" which made many passengers laugh nervously which helped some of them. But many were screaming now because no plane should be going straight up like a rocket into the sky because a plane isn't designed for that especially a passenger plane. So, people started throwing up a lot. My wife turned to me and said:"Are we all going to die, Fred?" And I said, "NO! I talked to the plane and it said it would get rough but we wouldn't die." She squeezed my hand and wanted to believe me.

Eventually the plane leveled out and we landed and my wife and I and our daughter were the only ones actually still okay psychologically around us. A corporate head said out loud, "That's the last time where we take all the executives of our company on the same plane. We almost wiped out our whole company here!"

So, this is my plane story but I asked the plane and the plane was straight with me and I said, "Okay" knowing it was going to get rough but I didn't realize just how rough it would actually be. The plane smelled a little like vomit as we all exited that day.
