Miracle landing

I came across this movie by chance, after finishing the cdrama New Horizons. Honestly, I've watched this 3 times! The first time, on my tablet, found it very incredible and decided to do a bit of research into Sichuan Airlines flight 8633 into what happened.

The drama follows closely on the incident that took place, but I believe the bits that were dramatised were the storm that the plane encountered on its emergency diversion to Chengdu Airport. There are so many emotions that went through my mind
1. The captain has the heaviest responsibility of his passengers' and crews' safety.
2. Do I miss travelling, going through the hassle of flying? (especially now with the Covid-19 pandemic)
3. Do we take the takeoff safety briefings for granted?
4. There are all sorts of characters that you meet - selfish, greedy, rude, arrogant, egotistical, anxious, depressed, disciplined, happy, excited, kind, etc. And these are just the passengers!
5. What if you're given a second chance to live? What would you change in your outlook on life?
6. Prayers and support help!
7. Do your part in helping the passengers and crew to get the plane back safely even if this means sitting quietly, and don't make trouble for others!
8. Murphy's law: "Anything that can go wrong will go wrong" - which is why having procedures and guidelines help to get you out of sticky situations.

I would definitely put this movie as a must watch if you have an interest in aviation, travelling, action, slice of life, suspense and a bit of romance. Give it a try!
