An FBO employee made my wife (a nervous airline flyer) turn ghost white
by saying: "A busy day gets worse when one of your planes goes down."
He was referring to a rental C152 with an alternator squawk "going down"
for maintenance. G

Like I pilot friend of mine told me he was coming in to land and
misjudged the approach and came in way to high. Upon Initiating a go
arround and told his passengers "We're not go make it" Meaning he was
going to have to go around. The passengers took it to mean "We are'nt
going to make it"

That seems like a reasonable interpretation to me.
