Subject: Flight: Ever make a mistake like this?
His request approved, the Fox News photographer quickly used a cell phone
to call the local airport to charter a flight. He was told a twin engine
plane would be waiting for him at the airport. Arriving at the airfield, he
spotted a plane warming up outside a hanger. He jumped in with
his bag, slammed the door shut, and shouted, 'Let's go'.
The pilot taxied out, swung the plane into the wind and took off. Once in
the air, the photographer instructed the pilot, 'Fly over the valley and
make low passes so I can take pictures of the fires on the hillsides.'
'Why?' asked the pilot.
'Because I'm a photographer for Fox Cable News,' he responded. 'And I need
to get some close up shots.'
The pilot was strangely silent for a moment, finally he stammered, 'So,
what you're telling me, is . ..
you're NOT my flight instructor?'
We shall not cease from exploration.
And at the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive were we started
And know the place for the first time - T. S. Eliot
