We were talking about the greatest airports in the country. Long Beach is number two, by the way. But it's time for Terror in the Skies flight zero and I are you Orklaer at the day off? Roger, get off my plane, Roger Rogers, what's our Victor? Victor? Enough is enough? I haven't had to put these mucky pint and snakes on this money to It's Gary and Shannon's Terror in the Skies on KFIK. All right, let's start in reverse
chronological order. Most recently, an American Airlines flight had to go back to Vegas yesterday morning flames and smoke came out of one of its engines. This flight took off from Vegas for Charlotte, North Carolina about eight in the morning. Airport spokesperson said the smoke came from the left engine. A bunch of people started taking videos and you could see the smoke and the flames coming from the engine
while it was in flight. So it turned around pretty quickly and was back at about just a few minutes later. But a maintenance team said they found no eva evidence that in fact the engine caught fire. Everybody got off fine. They were on board one hundred and fifty three passengers six crew time of the incident, but that plane was taken out of service just to be checked out. Five people on board an American Airlines flight had to be
hospitalized Sunday after unexpected turbulence. This flight from Miami up to Raleig, Durham and North Carolina when the plane hit turbulence Flight twelve eighty six. This also an Airbus three twenty one, just like the plane in the first one. The plane landed safely just about eleven o'clock. The crew reported possible injuries to cabin crew and passengers because of
the turbulence, so paramedics met them at the gate. Three flight attendants and two passengers had to be taken to the hospital, but no real description as to the extent of the injuries, but one passenger said it was like being on the top of a roller coaster and going down. It sounded like we hit something and then we just dropped in the air, and I can't imagine the defecation that would take place. A Virgin Airlines passenger had to be booted off a flight from Melbourne, Australia after a
heated altercation over a fanny pack. This flight had been waiting to take off from Perth when the woman began to act erratically, so they asked this twenty eight year old woman to remove her fanny pack for takeoff, but she declined and what she said was, you're telling me to take my clothes off on a plane f off, which was directed at one of the flight attendants, and the flight attendant said, I didn't say that you had a bum bag on, which, by the way, is a
better term than fanny pack. You had a bum bag on in the event of an evacuation. We need to make sure that you're safe and everyone else is safe. She didn't heed the command. The Australian Federal Police will deal with you, so, needless to say, the AFP showed up and escorted this woman, complete with her bum bag, off of the airplane. Passengers on a Ryan Air flight expected unexpectedly showered with booze after several bottles and the
overhead bins broke open during a bumpy landing. This woman, in a video on TikTok, is seen drenched in the aisle and a stream of unidentified clear liquor waterfalls onto her and her belongings from the overhead bin. The neighbor is also a seat mate, also visibly drenched with the leaking liquor. Said, the landing hit the ground so hard it broke two bottles of alcohol and the overhead locker and poured all over us, but at least the seats were nice and clean. You're not supposed to do that.
That's not supposed to do that. And then finally Southwest is dealing with their exploding soda cans. You may have heard this. Conway was talking about this. Flight crews and customers have talked about cans rupturing in mid air. The ruptures occur when cans have been left in the high
temperatures for too long. So you get places like Phoenix or Vegas when the temperatures are over one hundred degrees quite a bit, and you start hearing the cans before you even saw them, and you could hear them deforming. And basically, these flight attendants would say that the half of the stock, half of the cans would be deformed. So now they are going to refrigerate their provisioning trucks, at least for Vegas and Phoenix, because that's where it is most warm, most commonly
