Right now I'm watching CNN...
...and they're showing an aeroplane circling above an airport. Why? Cos it's landing gear is stuck and won't go up or down. How awful for the people on it.
And here we are, watching it on TV as if it's the next episode of Casualty. And I guess the cameras will stay trained right through to the successful/grim end I suppose. How awful.
There's a grim fascination about the whole thing. It's a bit like when you watch a film and try to look away when the gory bits happen, but you're actually peering through your fingers.
Prayers and crossed fingers for a painless landing...
