It almost sounds funny or similar to what you would see in a kids adventure movie. The boy hero takes out his slingshot and shoots the bad guy in the face or rear end to scare them away from their sister. This story isn’t funny or a movie though. A girl in Michigan was mushroom […]
We’ve all heard of planes losing pieces or whole engines and the brave men and women who safely get the aircraft to the ground. It takes experience and nerves of steel to handle those moments. Imagine being a 21 year old pilot that is on your 3rd solo flight ever and someone tells you that […]
