Yet Another Bullet Dodged

Great. Just great. Now I have to worry about wheelchairs too:

A holiday jet carrying 229 passengers narrowly avoided disaster when a wheelchair stored in the hold burst into flames shortly after landing at Manchester airport.

When on a plane, Mr. Sparky Battery is not your friend!

What would really be interesting is if the kind of wheelchair that (apparently) burst into flames wasn't the motorized kind!

Do you post these things just to make us travelers get nervous? Especially since I'm going to be flying soon and the lady across from me is roughly 173 years old?

At least I get to fly through Dallas...
