The rear entry door to the plane 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 white 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 plow 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, Bob, one of these days, they're gonna scream too late and we're all
gonna die."
