AUDIO: PILOT PASSES OUT DURING FLIGHT
The was some trouble aboard a Jet2 Airlines plane flying from Manchester, England, to the Madeira islands, which are in the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Morocco. The pilot passed out mid-flight. Fortunately, an off-duty pilot was apparently flying on the same plane and was able to step in and help the co-pilot. The plane diverted to Porto, Portugal. A passenger on the flight said that the original pilot was taken off the plane in a wheelchair wearing an oxygen mask.
* Did he have the fish?
* Did he roll down the cockpit window ’cause somebody farted?
* I hope they gave that replacement pilot a $25 voucher and a free second beverage from the drink cart.
* Do you think the flight attendants draw straws for who gets to make that announcement to the passengers?
CLIP: From “Airplane!” – the stewardess announcement.
