One day at a busy airport, the passengers on a commercial airliner were seated waiting for the pilot to show up so they could get under way.
The pilot and copilot finally appeared in the the rear of the plane and began walking up to the cockpit through the center aisle. Both appeared to be blind; the pilot was using a white cane bumping into passengers right and left as he stumbled down the aisle.The copilot was using a guide dog .Both had their eyes covered with sunglasses.
At first,the passengers did not react, thinking that it must be some sort of practical joke. After a few minutes though, the engines started revving, and the airplane moving down the runway.
The passengers looked at each other with some uneasiness.Th
ey started whispering amomg themselves and looked desperately to the stewardesses for reassurance.
Yet, the plane started accelerating rapidly,and people began panicking. Some passengers were praying, and as the plane got closer and closer to the end of the runway ,the voices were becoming more and more hysterical.
When the plane had less then twenty feet of runway left, there was a sudden change in the pitch of the shouts as everyone screamed at once. At the very last moment,the plane lifted off and was airborne.
Up in the cockpit, the copilot breathed a sigh of relief and told 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!"
