During another $50,000 a plate fundraiser (not private, thus no incriminating revelations…..sadly), this time in Beverly Hills, Mitt Romney talked about an incident involving Ann Romney whose airplane made an emergency landing on Friday due to an electrical malfunction, emphasis mine: 
“I appreciate the fact that she is on the ground, safe and sound. And I don’t think she knows just how worried some of us were. When you have a fire in an aircraft, there’s no place to go, exactly, there’s no — and you can’t find any oxygen from outside the aircraft to get in the aircraft, because the windows don’t open. I don’t know why they don’t do that. It’s a real problem. So it’s very dangerous. And she was choking and rubbing her eyes. Fortunately, there was enough oxygen for the pilot and copilot to make a safe landing in Denver. But she’s safe and sound.”
So, um, Romney doesn’t understand why aircraft windows don’t open… Smart.
