Courteney Cox is finally spilling the beans on what exactly went down when the private plane carrying her and Jennifer Aniston was forced to make an emergency landing while the two were en route to Mexico recently. Cox was headed to Cabo San Lucas with BFF Aniston when their plane experienced problems with the landing gear. 

"I'm not afraid of flying at all, my dad was a pilot, but I was really scared because when we were taking off, we heard this really loud bang," Cox, who was celebrating Aniston's 50th birthday party with a girls trip to Mexico, told Extra. "I was like, 'Oh, that sounds like we should probably check that tire'."
