Oh my gosh, I came online tonight and saw that Trisha was in a plane heading home from her 60 mile walk for Breast Cancer Awareness(Great Job again this Year Trisha!!) and was 30, 000 feet in the air when a back window cracked! YIKES!
I just want to say how Relieved, Happy and Thankful I am that Trisha is OK, and that she in fact had a Great dinner in Baltimore during her 3 hour layover waiting for a new plane! Even in the face of such a scare, Trisha showed her class and managed to make the best of what could have been a terrible tragedy. I bet Garth gave her one Heck of a hug when she finally got home!
I'm glad your safe! And Congrats on another Successful 60 mile walk!! You Go Girl!!

Oh my! That is so scary! I can't believe how calm Trisha was. I am totally scared to fly, and have to get on a plane in October. I've been worrying about it, but now I will try to be like Trisha and be brave.
I am so glad that everything turned out well!

OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!! I just read it, I can't believe! Poor Trisha, this is soo horrible, Im glad she is safe, I would die is something happen to her. Thank god she is fine.

Congratulations for another 60 mile walk!!
TRISHA YOU'RE AN ANGEL

Just read it myself - and what a terrifying experience for the crew and flight members!!!! What a horrific flight for Trisha and how relieved, happy, and thankful to God that nothing happened to her!!!!!! Kudos to the crewmen for getting the plane down safely!!!

I know Trisha was alright once she was with Garth but to be so courageous and regrouping in Baltimore at a wonderful restaurant after her terrible scare on the flight and 3 day walk (CONGRATULATIONS TRISHA!!!) is just another way of what a remarkable, amazing, and strong woman she really is!

I was glad to see yesterday that People had more details on this than another site did earlier.

But Baltimore is oh so close to me... I knew I should have given her my number!

Oh my goodness! What a scare that must have been! I am so thankful that she is OK, and no one was hurt. Thank you Lord!

Wow! I am so glad Trisha and everyone else were able to make a safe landing and that no one was hurt. How scary!

Umm, yeah, I would have freaked out.

Yearwood philosophical after emergency landing on the way to Oklahoma

By JOHN GEROME AP Entertainment Writer NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) _

Trisha Yearwood had a harrowing experience on a recent flight to Oklahoma when her plane was forced to make an emergency landing in Baltimore because of a cracked windshield.

The singer was shaken but undeterred; she caught another flight home a few hours later.

"I'm pretty spiritual about it," she said Wednesday. "I turn it over to God and think 'There's nothing I can do about it.' And I also think 'What are the odds?' I've been flying for 18 years and had one emergency landing. That's pretty good."

Yearwood, her sister and some friends were returning from a three-day, 60-mile walk in Boston to benefit the Susan G. Komen breast cancer research fund when they heard a loud pop on Aug. 18.

The flight crew told the passengers to stay calm — about the same time they saw the pilots wearing oxygen masks.

Yearwood, 43, said the front left window of the plane had cracked at 30,000 feet.

"We never lost cabin pressure, so we didn't have to use our oxygen masks. By the time we got on the ground, the crack on the front of the plane's window was huge, and getting bigger by the second."

When they reached the ground, she recalled, "It was like in the movies when they land and you see all the fire trucks and emergency crews. That's a real experience."

After a three-hour wait for another plane — and a "fantastic" seafood dinner on the city's Inner Harbor — they were back in the air.

"I didn't have any anxiety like 'The last thing I want to do is get back on an airplane.' I did feel like the pilots and the flight attendants handled it perfectly. They were so very calm. It wasn't a scary situation until afterward when you think about what possibly could have happened.

"But once I did land and get home," she confessed, "I thought 'Good. I'd like to stay home a little while.'"

Thank God things turned out for the best! I bet that big ole house in Owasso never looked so good.
