Hooter,
I'm only half sorry to hear you dumped a couple. Anyone who hasn't lost one, and has the guts to wave it in the face of the airplane gods by bragging, certainly should expect it.

Now, the crucial thing; do not let these incidents step on your confidence. Losing the arrogance is fine, but letting your confidence slip can cost you a couple more. It's a viscious cycle! ( )
