Airplane flying low really made me nervous!

It was this morning that I was at the pool with my children when I heard the sound of an airplane flying really low overhead, it made me nervous.

VERY nervous, indeed. I didn't know last week's plane crash (that wasn't so significant actually) had affected me 'this' much.

Knowing that the plane that had crashed was a military plane and that the housing complex that was crashed into was an air base housing, I knew I was pretty much outside the 'accident radius'.

But I guess because it happened only about 5 kilometres away from my home (and that it actually happened at all), becoming a plane crash victim at anytime seems real in Jakarta, hence the nervousness I was feeling when the sound of an airplane flew low overhead was heard this morning.

Anyways, in case you missed the news of the recent plane crash in Jakarta, here's a link to The Jakarta Post's Sky Falls on Air Base Housing Complex.
In Jakarta, Indonesia. Arrow pointing to the spot where a plane crashed into a housing complex the other day killing about 11 people altogether. Photo was taken from the balcony of my home about 12 minutes after plane crashes.
