Sorry for thread drift but...

Flying into HK from LHR a few years back in a Qantas aircraft on New Year's day got the call from the gents up front:

"Ladies and Gentlemen etc...Captain from flight deck...just begun our approach into Hong Kong where First Officer xxxx will attempt the landing."

2 Minute pause as aircraft begins descent.

"Ladies and Gentlemen. First Officer xxxx from the flight deck. I will indeed be attempting a landing at approximately xxxx local time."

Bless the Qantas crew and their Oz humor. Made my flight a memorable one. Best "Crews Voice" I've heard!

Best,
