Humour is rare in aviation
Therefore we must give thanks for Mr. Akbar Al Baker, who having giving us years of delight just with the comb-over now adds standup to his routine. Here he is about the trifling boondoggle in Miami:
“It was an instruction given to our pilot by the air traffic control, which he should have refused to accept,” says Al Baker at a media event in New York today. “However, he had enough runway for getting airborne and it was only an unfortunate incident. At no time was the aircraft or the passengers put in any harms way.”
E's a right Arabic Billy Connolly 'e is!
