FORT DODGE, Iowa--"It was the best thing that could have happened," said fear-of-flying specialist Lynn Walsey.
Dr. Walsey's class -- which helps students overcome their terror of commercial aviation -- went down in bad weather on the outskirts of Fort Dodge.

Problems began shortly after takeoff, when both engines aboard Walsey's airliner flamed out.

"No worries there," Captain Barris Hamilton announced to the jittery fliers. "Planes like ours can glide without incident for fifteen minutes or more." Hamilton restarted the engines but immediately lost hydraulics to the flight control surfaces.

"And the landing gear" said Captain Hamilton. "Fortunately, flights land safely without gear all the time."

Sparks and metal flew as the jet made a belly landing, skidded from the runway, and finally plowed into a Fort Dodge "Chamber of Horrors" amusement center, where animatronic ghosts leaped at passengers through holes in the fuselage.

Passengers almost unanimously regard the class as a success.

"I think it's safe to say I'm cured," said one happy student. "I'm really looking forward to my flight home."
