F FOR 'FLIGHT.'. FUN FOR A WHILE!



### The Frequent Traveler Boss and his less traveled Assistant were traveling by Flight on their Outstation Duty. The Flight took off, leveled and was cruising at constant speed the engines roaring with uneasy sounds..

The Boss plugged in a pair of ear plugs to avoid the engine noise, left seat vertical and seat belt 'ON' and asking his Assistant to wake him before landing, dozed off. His wrist watch moved for a while and stopped.. 

Soon having completed its level flight, the Aircraft descended to lower heights and at the back of necessary landing preparations started the final descent to the touch down point..

“Sir! We've reached. The Aircraft is landing!”

Said the Assistant loudly into his Boss' ears..

The Boss moved a bit with the ear plugs on, looked at his watch with half eyes closed and instantly shouted at the Assistant, 

“What are you talking? Still 45 minutes Flight time is there. How can it land now? It's cruising at 33000 ft height! Are you clear?”

The Assistant fed up with the Boss' usual style of talk said with a sarcastic smile, 

“Yes, Sir! you are right.. The Flight is really cruising in skies at 33000 feet. But, Sir! There are trees, roads, vehicles and buildings in the sky at this great height. Isn't that strange?”

### A man tensed up all the time to travel frequently to an earth quake prone area on office work was told by his friends to take good advice from an Expert..

Accordingly one day he met the Expert, briefed him his problem saying, 

“Sir! I feel that the ground on which I stay should be firm and not shaky. I am tensed up if the same platform is not firm and can shake at any time!”

The Expert smiled and said, 

"Dear! I'll make you strong in a minute. See, the Flight in which you travel frequently to this place too is not stable and invariably shakes a few times in every travel. Are you not cool there? It is similar.. Think right, you are cool!"

Later, the Expert was enthusiastic to know the change he could bring in the man thru' his unique advice and accordingly he made an enquiry with one of his friends.. The friend said, 

“Sir! It has become worse. Presently he is afraid of going by Flight too!”

### The Passengers were ready for boarding the scheduled Flight. Suddenly, the announcement came,

"Ladies and Gentlemen! One of the ground vehicles had touched the Aircraft and damaged the paint outside the skin. The Flight can't take off till the Experts decide on the rework and the same is completed. I request you all to be patient and relax!”

The passengers murmured within but there was no go and they patiently waited in the lounge as snacks and drinks were served. Time moved on and after a delay of nearly 5 hrs, the boarding announcement came up and the tired passengers quickly boarded the plane, occupied their seats and put on their seat belts. All was ready for the take off..

Before switching off, one of the passengers was heard speaking on his mobile phone aloud.. 

“It's too much..  For a small repair, the Flight is held up for 5 hrs. We started now and on the way, if the pilot makes up for the delay, it's good. Instead if the Flight is further delayed, God knows, when we reach!”
