6 adults were taken off the flight on stretchers. Imagine what would have happened to an lap baby! :(

I sooooo wish the FAA and Transport Canada would outlaw lap children. JMHO.

Gosh, I hadn't heard that yet! Scary!

Transport Canada needs to approve the CARES harness, as well. *foot tapping*

wow, I saw a headline on this but didn't catch the story. I'm so glad DS flies in his Scenera. BTW, DH was on a flight yesterday sitting next to a flight attendant who said he had just been on a flight where the wing was hit by lightening!

I just forwarded that to my sister who gave me a hard time about DD harness on the airplane. My Mom used to be a flight attendant and said always where your seatbelts even when the seat belt signs are off because she has seen weird thing happen and her head hit the ceiling of the plane.
