The flight attendants went to crash position and you could *smell* the fear in the passenger area cabin. They wheeled the thing around, announced there had been a fals alarm light, and took us right down the runway. They gave us a drink for the aborted take-off and another for being 1 1/2 hours late on take-off after leaving the gate on time. Hmmm, then there was this one time when we got bumped to first class on a Northwest flight out of Chicago; midnight champaign flight. carpo
