How many times can you face your death..?

Death can come at any instant.. Death can come without any warning.. Or it can come preceded with a deafening sound of mindless military precision; Just a couple of seconds of warning.. Just enough time to ask yourself about the noise.. Just a couple of seconds to try and figure out which direction that ripping sound is coming from..

On VR1355 they always come from the east.. Always look towards the east and you can face your death.. Face it head-on like a man; shake like a girl later..

How much vertical separation do you really need..? Is fifty feet enough.. I guess that depends.. If you intend to fly close, then fifty feet can be adequate.. But if you're just flying above a peaceful mountain top minding your own business and the sky suddenly is ripped up by a terrain flying EA-6B Prowler, then fifty feet is nowhere near enough.. Nowhere near enough..

How many times can you face your death..? For me, I hope more than once..
