One of the many reasons why we are paid the big bucks - taking something that looks horrific and death defying , and turning it into a standard return to departure airport. The fact that the " earth people " haven`t a clue as to what is happening is almost irrelevant , as long as they sit tight , buckle up , review their safety features card , follow the cabin crew`s instructions , and let the professionals get on with it. I could care less what the folks in the back think - the reason they`re getting home safe is because I want to get home safe. That said , well done crew.
