"But hey, riots are better than pointing to the merger, right? "

Years ago we chartered a 707 to fly down to Buenos Aires, during the flight down the airport which we were to land at, was bombed by a dissatisfied Argentine Air Force Pilot...
The Captain informed us that his company directed him to, literally, drop us off, not shutting down his engines and to take off immediately to refuel in another country...
Our group as well as our luggage were 'deposited' on the Tarmac in a strangely empty airport, as our flight was the only one on the field.
After collecting our bags and rapidly exiting the field, only to be met with machine gun toting military..unsettling at the time... before it was common here in the States.
SO, I am no 'Nervous Nellie' when it comes to experiences out of the ordinary...
Please have the courtesy to respect my concerns...
