The Living Force
I use to get up at 7.45 and some time before I dreamed the next:
I was in a plane, to go don't know where, but I had a big perception that something was going wrong, shortly after the plane dropped suddenly and irretrievably, I concentrate myself on that and then the plane took its place again.
Shortly after I was walking with a group of people and we went to catch a plane, then I remembered of what happened before
and at that very moment I found myself in front of my father who offers me to carry me by car.
Then I found myself in a car in a very wide road, someone is driving; I look back and see the plane that took the group, I know they are gonna have problems, and then the plane starts losing altitude, I concentrate myself trying to make it land as softly as possible.
Now I am in a kind of dark bar with some other people who were talking of the plane crash, they said that at least there were not many dead.
It was a very confusing dream, did not think about it untill I arrived at home and see the news on tv.
Here you are the info on the topic:

At least nine killed as Turkish Airlines plane crashes near Amsterdam
More than 50 injured as plane carrying at least 127 passengers splits in three on approach to Schiphol airport
Among these who died were the three flight crew, whose bodies remained on the stricken plane, officials said. A total of 80 people had been taken to 11 hospitals around the region, a medical official told a press conference. Six of these were very critically hurt and it was not known whether they would survive. Five others were seriously hurt, she said.
The mayor of the municipality, Michel Bezuijen, said the Boeing 737-800, believed to be carrying 135 passengers and crew, crash landed at 10.31am (9.31am GMT). "We cannot say anything about the cause at the moment," Bezuijen told reporters . "The priority of the authorities is providing assistance and care."
The plane, arriving from Istanbul, was severely damaged as it ploughed into the field while approaching the Polderbaan runway, the newest and furthest from the terminals at Schiphol, 12 miles from Amsterdam's centre. The impact split the fuselage near the front of the wing, while the tail and a rear section of the body was sheared off. One of the engines was also ripped from a wing and lay around 200 metres from the main wreckage. There was, however, no sign of fire or smoke.
Turkey's transport minister, Binali Yildirim, said it was "a miracle" that more people did not die. "The fact that the plane landed on a soft surface and that there was no fire helped keep the number of fatalities low," he said.
One passenger told Turkey's NTV television that the plane lost height suddenly as it came in to land, striking the ground tail first. "We were at an altitude of 600 metres when we heard the announcement that we were landing," Kerem Uzel said. "We suddenly descended a great distance as if the plane fell into turbulence. The plane's tail hit the ground."
Another passenger, Tuncer Mutluhan, told NTV: "While we were making a normal landing, it felt like we fell into a void, the plane lost control, suddenly plunged and crashed." This happened "in three or five seconds".
A local man said it appeared to him that the plane was gliding without any power. "The plane was nose up and the tail section was at a 45-degree angle. The tail section broke down first, which broke off," Thomas Freidhoff told the BBC. "And seconds after the crash people started exiting through the tail section ... I saw dozens of people making it out very quickly, and as I was about to dial 911 the first sirens were noticeable, and within five minutes there were 10 or 15 ambulances."
Candan Karlitekin, the head of Turkish Airlines's board of directors, said that visibility was good at the time flight TK1951 came in to land.
"Visibility was clear and around 5,000 yards [4,500 metres]. Some 550 yards before landing the plane landed on a field instead of the runway," he said. "We have checked the plane's documents and there is no problem concerning maintenance."
The airline was flying relatives of those on the flight to Amsterdam this afternoon, after Dutch authorities suspended the usual visa requirements.
The airline described the plane's captain, a former air force pilot, as very experienced. Gideon Evers, spokesman of the International Federation of Airline Pilots' Associations, said the cause of the crash remained unclear.
"Certainly it appears to be an unusual circumstance, but as always the sensible course of action is to wait for the results of the investigation into the causes leading up to the accident," he said.
There was no indication that the crash had anything to do with the fuel level, Evers said, adding that regulations require all commercial flights to carry ample reserves.
The airport, one of the main aviation hubs in Europe and the continent's fifth-biggest by passenger numbers, was briefly closed to air traffic after the crash, causing some delays and cancellations.
The crash appears to be the worst in the Netherlands since an El Al cargo plane hit high-rise apartment blocks in a suburb of Amsterdam in October 1992 , killing 43 people, 39 of them on the ground.
Did you ever had similar experiences?
