Peter, can you let me know your intended movements over the next year or
so so I can be sure of avoiding the same flights.
I estimate that I have flown around 400 sectors over the last 25 years.
Apart from bad weather making flying uncomfortable from time to time and
one go-around at London Gatwick due to traffic spacing, all have been
incident free.
Oh.... I did spill hot, black coffee over a female passenger sitting
next to me once, but that is another story.
The biggest problem that I have suffered is bag loss twice over this
period.
