Any scary flights or incidents in the air?

Apart from Saltwell Airways :p has anyone been on any unusual type of plane?

I was on a US Airways/American A320 flight from Puerto Vallarta to Phoenix (US482). I was sat in row 11 - an escape row with an overwing hatch. Row 10, in front of my row, has one too. We took off, and had some bumps - nothing out of the ordinary. During said bumps, the panel from the emergency hatch in row 10 fell off. The mexican in front of me simply picked it up, and put it back on. I was fairly nervous for the rest of the flight!

Had a rough couple of hours on BA242 from MEX-LHR last year. Nothing massive, just an uncomfortable couple of hours with no loo. Cabin staff still passed through with refreshments. I've flown this route, LHR-DFW and LHR-PHX and it's usually inevitable with the atlantic to get the odd bumpy patch.

I have, however, had a few hellish ups and downs on AeroMexico. I know a few pilots for AeroMexico and Interjet and they are more than used to flying in those conditions, but for me, it was pretty hairy. I have flown AM142 twice (MEX-PVR) and it's been a rocky ride both times on their E190 (LOVELY aircraft, I have to say!). It was like dodge the cumulonimbus for most of the flight! Spectacular to see the clouds, but I was thankful to be on the ground after an hour and a bit of it!
