Some real entertainment in the flight - a funny incident

Recently, I was coming back from an outstation tour. After the flight landed, the doors were yet to be opened, waiting for mobile stairs to be attached. Meanwhile, many passengers got up to take their bags from the overhead compartments. 

Possibly seeing this, the captain made the announcement, starting with local weather conditions, and then asked all passengers to remain seated and informed them that their belongings would be safe and the flight crew was not interested in passengers' bags. He advised all not to get up till the announcement for exit was made.

Everybody had a heartful laugh and sat till the doors were opened.

Close shave for 3 jets at Chennai airport - The Times of India

As per the reports (Close shave for 3 jets at Chennai airport - The Times of India), a major collision between a plane landing and another plane about to takeoff was averted due to prompt action by the the pilot of the landing plane just in time. The plane about to take off delayed its takeoff as a plane that landed before did not vacate the runway and was at the end of the runway. The taking off plane after aborting its takeoff abruptly by applying '(hot) brakes', was taken for inspection bay for checks.

It is stated that due to maintenance of second runway, total load of about 400 daily flight movements are carried on single runway.
