Couldn't help overhearing a conversation between a lady and her colleague sitting behind me on the landing Southampton Leeds flight last night. They use a small Jetstream aircraft, and as commented elsewhere on this blog, Leeds Bradford's exposed location can make the landings bumpy in strong cross-winds:
Anyway back to the lady behind me - I quote as much as I can remember:
"I would prefer to know I was going to die than having a bumpy landing like that".
Colleague "mmh that's a dark view"
Lady: " It just not knowing whether you're going to crash as it bumps around on landing, I'd just prefer to know I was going to the crash"...........
My immediate thought was she should avoid Leeds Bradford as 9/10 landings are bumpy and she would only get more depressed......
