Air Traffic Control told him "have a nice day and never come back"
Vampire business....
The question is where did it land down ? :clapping:
Somewhere in Transylvania...:rofl:
Think they sent the pilot a bill for the repairs?
Reminds me of how terrible the roads were where I grew up in Louisiana. They looked like they had already been introduced to Mr. de Havilland Vampire.
Actually he provided a service for the airport pointing out bad runway that could have caused a serious problem.
That is a bit like saying that a hacker who emptied your bank account did you a favour by alerting you to your vulnerabilities.Quote:
