Flight Relief

[Alsatian]

Two men dressed in Pilots uniforms walk up the aisle.
Both are wearing dark glasses, one is using a guide dog, and the other  is
tapping his way along the aisle with a white stick.
Nervous laughter spreads through the cabin but the men enter the  cockpit,
the door closes, and the engines start up.
The passengers begin glancing nervously around, searching for some sign
that this is just a little practical joke.
None is forth coming.
The plane moves faster and faster down the runway, and the people  sitting
in the window seats realise they're headed straight for the  water at the
end of the airport runway.
The plane still does not take off and it begins to look as though the
plane will plough into the water - panicked screams fill the cabin.
At that moment, the plane lifts smoothly into the air.
The passengers relax and laugh a little sheepishly, and soon all retreat
into their magazines, secure in the knowledge that the plane really is  in
good hands.
In the cockpit, one of the blind pilots turns to the other and says,  "You
know Reg, one of these days, they're gonna scream too late and  we're all
gonna die."
