You shouldn't really start with the airline stuff - you'll
get a million responses here..... but the pilot may have had the
following problem:

..... reminds me of the time we landed in Charlotte at nite, and
as we were braking, I noticed another plane had just touched down
on a runway 90 degrees to us. Boy did our pilot ever hit the brakes
hard. And seems I was the only one who noticed the other plane - and
of course, the stewardess didn't see a thing. But I thanked the pilot
anyway.
