You're gonna die!
Oh how they must have laughed when they found out it was a mistake

About 275 passengers were on the London Heathrow to Hong Kong flight on Tuesday evening when the automated message went out. The plane was flying over the North Sea at the time.
Cabin crew quickly realised the error and moved to reassure the terrified passengers.
"We all thought we were going to die," Michelle Lord, 32, of Preston, told The Sun newspaper.
Another passenger was reported saying: "I can't think of anything worse than being told your plane's about to crash."

They used to have a flight safety poster which said "Don't bother to look out of the windscreen, why die all tensed up?"

The A380 had to go round again from final approach to Manchester today. That must have been worrying enough.
How about, "You've been involved in a plane crash and I'm here to read you the last rites."

From the film Airplane....
"There's no reason to become alarmed, and we hope you'll enjoy the rest of your flight. By the way, is there anyone on board who knows how to fly a plane?"
