1Why did the plane turn back?
2I used to travel by air a great deal when I was a boy.
3My parents used to live in South America and I used to fly there from Europe in the holidays.
4A flight attendant would take charge of me and I never had an unpleasant experience.
5I am used to travelling by air and only on one occasion have I ever felt frightened.
6After taking off,
7we were flying low over the city and slowly gaining height,
8when the plane suddenly turned round and flew back to the airport.
9While we were waiting to land,
10a flight attendant told us to keep calm
11and to get off the plane quietly as soon as it had touched down.
12Everybody on board was worried and we were curious to find out what had happened.
13Later we learnt that there was a very important person on board.
14The police had been told that a bomb had been planted on the plane.
15After we had landed,
16 the plane was searched thoroughly.
17Fortunately, nothing was found and five hours later we were able to take off again.
