Pilot einer Alitalia, dem ein Blitzschlag das halbe Cockpit lahm gelegt
hat: 'Bei uns ist fast alles ausgefallen. Nichts geht mehr. Selbst
unser Höhenmesser zeigt nichts mehr an ........'
Nach fünf Minuten Lamentierens meldet sich der Pilot einer anderen Maschine:
'Halts Maul und stirb wie ein Mann!'

Und mein Liebling:
This is the transcript of an actual radio conversation of a US Naval
Ship with Canadian authorities off the coast of Newfoundland.
Canadians: Please divert your course 15 degrees to the south to avoid collision.
Americans: Recommend you divert your course 15 degrees to the north to avoid a collision.
Canadians: Negative. You will have to divert your course 15 degrees to the south to avoid a collision.
Americans: This is the Captain of a US Navy Ship. I say again, divert YOUR course.
Canadians: No. I say again, divert YOUR course.
Americans: THIS IS THE AIRCRAFT CARRIER USS LINCOLN, THE SECOND LARGEST SHIP IN THE UNITED STATES’ ATLANTIC FLEET.
WE ARE ACCOMPANIED BY THREE DESTROYERS, THREE CRUISERS AND NUMEROUS SUPPORT VESSELS. I DEMAND THAT YOU
CHANGE YOUR COURSE 15 DEGREES NORTH, I SAY AGAIN, THAT’S ONE FIVE DEGREES NORTH, OR COUNTER-MEASURES WILL
UNDERTAKEN TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF THIS SHIP.
Canadians: This is a lighthouse. Your call.
