Living apart and at peace with myself, I came to realize more vividly the meaning of the doctrine of acceptance. To refrain from giving advice, to refrain from meddling in the affairs of others, to refrain, even though the motives be the highest, from tam

The German controllers at Frankfurt Airport
were often short-tempered. They not only expected you to know your
parking location but how to get there without any assistance from
them. So
it was with some amusement that we (PanAm 747) listened to
the following
exchange between Frankfurt ground and a British Airways
747 (radio call
Speedbird 206) after landing.
Speedbird 206:
"Good morning Frankfurt, Speedbird 206 clear of the
active."
Ground: "Guten morgan, taxi to your gate."
The British Airways 747
pulls onto the main taxiway and stops.
Ground: "Speedbird, do you not
know where you are going?"
Speedbird 206: "Stand by, ground, I'm
looking up the gate location
now."
Ground (with typical German
impatience): "Speedbird 206, have you
never flown to Frankfurt
before?"
Speedbird 206 (coolly): "Yes, in 1944. But I didn't stop."

It was mealtime on a small airline and the
flight attendant asked the passenger if he would like
dinner.
"What are my choices?" he asked.
"Yes or No," she replied.

While cruising at 40,000
feet, the
airplane shuddered and Mr. Benson looked out the window.
"Good lord!" he
screamed, "one of the engines just blew up!"
Other passengers
left their seats and came running over; suddenly the
aircraft was
rocked by a second blast as yet another engine exploded on
the other
side.
The passengers were in a panic now, and even the
stewardesses couldn't
maintain order. Just then, standing tall and smiling
confidently, the
pilot strode from the cockpit and assured everyone
that there was
nothing to worry about. His words and his demeanor
seemed made most of the
passengers feel better, and they sat down as
the pilot calmly walked to
the door of the aircraft. There, he
grabbed several packages from under
the seatsand began handing them to
the flight attendants. Each crew
member attatched the package to
their backs.
"Say," spoke up an alert passenger, "aren't tho
se parachutes?"
The pilot said they were.
The passenger
went on, "But I thought you said there was nothing to
worry
about?"
"There isn't," replied the pilot as a third engine exploded.
"We're going to get help."

"But Center, we are at 35,000 feet, how much noise
can we make up
here?"
"Sir, have you ever heard the noise a 707
makes when it hits a
727?"
