Hey Pekka, wish you a good flight to Germany this weekend :-) *LOL
Have you heard that my favorite Finnish Airline V-bird is bankrupt ? :-(
Give me a call if you need some assistance and company in Germany.

Hi again,

Just cheering you all up with perhaps a good joke. Do not forget to scream
when you are flying to Stockholm...

Regards,
Pekka

One day at a busy airport, the passengers on a commercial airliner are
seated waiting for the pilot to show up so they can get under way.

The pilot and copilot finally appear in the rear of the plane and begin
walking up to the cockpit through the center aisle. Both appear to be blind;
the pilot is using a white cane, bumping into passengers right and left as
he stumbles down the aisle. The copilot is using a guide dog. Both have
their eyes covered with sunglasses.

At first, the passengers do not react thinking that it must be some sort of
practical joke. After a few minutes though, the engines start revving, and
the airplane begins moving down the runway.

The passengers look at each other with some uneasiness. They start
whispering among themselves and look desperately to the stewardesses for
reassurance.

Yet, the plane starts accelerating rapidly, and people begin panicking. Some
passengers are praying, and as the plane gets closer and closer to the end
of the runway, the voices are becoming more and more hysterical.

When the plane has less than twenty feet of runway left, there is a sudden
change in the pitch of the shouts as everyone screams at once. At the very
last moment, the plane lifts off and is airborne.

Up in the cockpit, the copilot breathes a sigh of relief and tells the
pilot: "You know, one of these days the passengers aren't going to scream,
and we aren't going to know when to take off!"
