The plane climbed up above the rain and all of a sudden from the overhead compartment above the seat next to me, SPLASH! Like a bucket of water came pouring down. 本当にビックリ！でした。 That was really scary! それでもそのままLAに飛んで行きましたが。（途中下車できない！） 「いったどこからあの水が室内に入って来たのか？」 LAまでの約9時間、機中でズーっと考えていました。やはり雨漏り以外考えられませんでした。 でも乗務員は慣れっこなのか「すみませーん今拭きますねー」って冷静だったのを覚えています。 ちなみに飛行機会社も及川君を同じでした。 However, it wasn't like we could stop anywhere as we were in-flight so the plane continued to LA. "Where exactly did all that water come from?" It takes about 9 hours to LA and after that incident I couldn't think of anything else but the water leak. Maybe because of practice, I don't know, but I remember the flight crew being very calm and helpful. Interestingly enough, that flight was the same airlines as the one Mr. Oikawa was one.
