A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to Edmonton

While I was looking at Wikipedia for something else, I found out on the home page that today is the anniversary of the flight of the Gimli Glider, the only funny story I've read about an air disaster, or at least near disaster.

I just thought I'd drop the link in for your reading enjoyment.

yup I remember when that happened, was a big deal at the time. They even made a tv movie of it a few years back.

BTW I lived 11 years in Edmonton, great city.

- Peace

I didn't even have a TV at the time, so I suppose it not too surprising I missed it.

I've always wanted to visit Alberta, but have never gotten there.

Thanks for stopping by!
