When the news says "Plane CRASH!!!" I imagined something worse, this was more like a takeoff problem right?

Yeah, just a few injuries I think. It ran off the run way. Good thing I'm having my xmas in H-town this time. Was planning to go back to Denver, but canceled

"The survivors were each given $200, a 10 percent discount coupon for a future flight and a coupon for a free beer."

I find that funny. Thank you for flying Continental Airlines.

engine ripped off, fuselage split open, wing on fire.... sounds like a crash to me. If you had this happen in your car, you probably wouldn't categorize it as a "fender bender".

"Jeb Tilly, 36, heard the "I love you's," but was trying to stay focused. Books and luggage were flying around. He grabbed his wife's head and pulled it down."
