Online Class Notes (Jesse)

correct this and the rest of the story (still to come from Nia)

One of your tiktok video describes the movie of China captain. So I watched it this week,and the plot(s) was really breathtaking and moving,which touched/impressed me a lot. The captains and crew are professional,responsible and brilliant.There are a couple of dangers occur during this flight,first of all,the windscreen is smashed in the flight deck when they fly to the altitude over 8000 meter.Which makes the co-pilot sucked outside and the oxygen is poor,it’s quiet dangerous,the captain try his best to control this situation and drive the plane stable.But the wind is so strong,which blow the door open and makes the pessengers scared and confused.
