    Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have a small problem.
    All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get them under control.
    I trust you are not in too much distress. —Captain Eric Moody, British Airways Flight 9

    Yeah............I got caught up in this mess as well. I got delayed about 3 hours from Richmond, VA. When I arrived to JFK (Terminal 2) around 12:30am, there were plenty of folks still waiting to get out of JFK. Definitely no funny waiting around.

    Man wicked lighting and thunder!! I love listening to the pilots being cautious but also the ballsy ones just taking off in the face of the storm. One helicopter was ibound with the full force of the storm at his back... balls!! I would have landed at Aqueduct lol
