Code Black
“Violent thunderstorms lay dead ahead, the clouds racing upward into the atmosphere. The growing turbulence pounded the airplane, like sledgehammers pummeling the thin aluminum skin. In his rush to gain control of the airliner, he hadn’t fastened his harness. He cursed his lack of discipline. Any more mistakes and he knew this airplane could come raining down in a million pieces.

The wall of the thunderstorm now filled the windshield. Donovan held his breath as the Boeing, still in as tight a turn as he dared, punched into the side of the storm.MoreLess
