Two blind pilots 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. As it begins to look
as though the plane will plough in to 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,"ya know, Bob, one of these days, they're gonna
scream too late and we're all gonna die."
