| Barry,
|
| If you do not get a positive reply or any help from one of the other members
| email me in about three weeks, and I will fly up and check it out. Am going
| to pick up N680RR late next week at Commander Aeor so flying up will not be
| a big deal.
|
| Regards,
|
| Moe

The entrance opens, 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 cane.
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 forthcoming. The plane moves
faster and faster down the runway, and the people sitting in the window seats
realize they're headed straight for the water at the edge of the airport
territory. As 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 is in good hands.
In the cockpit, one of the blind pilots turns to the other and says, "You know,
Frank, one of these days, they're gonna scream too late and we're all gonna
die!!
