the Captain enters the room and thanks us for being such good, cooperative passengers. He thanked US. My God he just performed a miracle landing on a wing and a prayer and he thanks us. We later learned just how perilous and tricky this landing was. On his way into the room men and women threw their aims around him and cheered.

After the Captain and crew left the room the passengers consoled each other. Some actually fainted. One man had a heart attack. Another woman was rushed to the hospital because she clutched her hands so tightly together they had to be surgically parted.
