It’s a true fact that all planes land. Not exactly how you want them to land, but still...

We have never left one up there.
“Two minutes after that: The EICAS issued a sharp bong indicating the complete and total loss of both engines. . . . Its a sound that Bob and I had never heard before. . . . . Starved of fuel, both . . . engines had flamed out.”
I wonder if it sounds like the cloister bell on the TARDIS?
