I dunno, but there's a lesson here:
Don't let the pax see you shaking after a precautionary landing, especially if they earn their living yakking on TV.

Great tagline: “Once you defy death on a Friday, the rest of the weekend is gravy.”

Death Defying!!!

I'll think about that tomorrow when I fly around with the side windows out -- I'll even climb to 3,000. just for grins.

Haven't we all learned what Rod Machado says, 'You sweat only on the left side of your face."

When I was obsessing for a long while with how much fuel I had to make it all the way home the GF didn't know until I asked ATC for help on where I could find an open FBO (....and I didn't need to worry but it felt a lot better having 4 full tanks.)
