My wife has been a FA for over 10 years. She is definately cut out for it, she loves flying, but she's also human. From what she briefly told me, it was pretty bad, px screaming, etc. As I previously stated, she's been through an aborted landing before, but it certainly didn't cause her to call me in tears. I'll know more when she gets home soon. Definately will give her some extra attention tonight. Glad to hear it's common and relatively safe. It's got to be terrifying though. Thanks for the replies.
