Ladies and gentlemen, buckle your damn seat belt!
Five passengers on an ExpressJet flight from Houston's Bush Intercontinental Airport to Tulsa, Okla., were injured when the plane ran into unexpected turbulence shortly before landing Wednesday afternoon.

Five women suffered minor injuries, including cuts and bruises, and were taken to a hospital, said Emergency Management Services Authority spokeswoman Tina Wells. The women ranged in age from 25 to 77, Wells said.

The women were injured when the plane hit severe "clear air turbulence," said ExpressJet spokeswoman Kristy Nicholas. The plane was above the clouds when a change in air pressure rocked the cabin.
Why you'd be sitting in an airplane without that damn belt holding your ass to the seat is beyond me.
