JETSTAR flight attendants were in tears after hearing a loud bang, followed by flames coming from an engine on a Christchurch to Sydney flight, a passenger says.
A nearby passenger told flight attendants that dark smoke and flames were coming from one of the engines, she said.
"Some of the stewardesses were up the back in tears and kept moving past passengers to look at the engines ... and I think that worried some people."

I've never seen a news article mentioning that Qantas flight attendants cry during emergencies. Sure, they probably get more practice than most, but these young kids, with little life experience, who are out there being flighties, need a check up from the neck up. Have some faith in those up front, we train for this... or maybe they know something about the flight training we dont..?
