Why not just take potshots at the Jynx from the safety of the cabin? And *how* fast is this plane travelling? If they *did* go out onto the wing, wouldn't they just get blown off instantly? For example, a Boeing 727-100 has a maximum cruising speed of 960 kilometers per hour.  That's approximately 570 miles per hour for you Americans out there.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" />  I mean, I know it's a cinematic game, but it might be hard to suspend belief if you have people standing on the wing of a commercial aircraft travelling at five hundred miles per hour...Rather than get into the wing thing at all, which seems a tad lethal, why not just have the Jynxs crash into the cabin and start attacking passengers? You could have them jumping over seats, throwing carry-on luggage, using passengers as shields...lots of potential there.  Then you could arrange for one of the Jynxs to make a dash for the cockpit and a PC has to catch him before he starts messing with the controls.  Or something.Hell yes! The mundanes freaking out at the Jynxes would only strengthen this encounter.  "MY GOD WHAT IS THAT? AAAIIIIEEEE!" and so on.  Maybe some of the mundanes could simply go mad and start laughing hysterically or even attack the PCs...(Man grabs PC, his eyes bulging with madness, saying, "You're one of THEM! I'll RIP YOUR EYES OUT!" or something).When the plane lands (IF it lands, that is), have the MiBs waiting to "interview" the passengers.  There's another adventure hook right there!Overall, a great idea for an encounter.  But going out on the wing is probably (a) too dangerous and (b) too unrealistic.  Just my $0.02.</blockquote>
