You divert to Addis for a medical emergency whilst enroute to the Middle East. The controller denies your "request". You declare an emergency again and land. The airport "authority" berates you for bringing a critical pax to Ethiopia and not your destination that's 3 hours away. The pax is declared dead after arrival in Addis. The body of the Nigerian drug mule whose condoms full of a white powder produced in South America is seized by the Nigerian embassy and the "evidence" is never seen again.

noflynomore,
The term "404" is used describe dog meat suya in some areas of West Africa. To be fair it didn't taste too bad ! Consistency was a cross between chicken and pork.
Cheers.

Probably like chicken as mysteriously a lot of things taste like chicken.
Alligator taste likes chicken and so do frog legs.
It's like our dear Lord ran out of flavors and after 12-15 he made them all taste like chicken.

Piltdown Man,
B2N2 is dead on. Tasted just like chicken. At first I was a bit p**sed off that my friend had bamboozled me, but after a while I realised that almost all of us eat dead animals of one sort or another. The fact that some cultures eat dogs, cats etc while others revere cows and consider pigs unclean means almost all of us consider meat is acceptable to eat in one form or another.
Still, I didn't have 404 ever again !

You receive an official Tax Bill for $9,000,000 from the guys in Abuja.
You phone your accountant immediately, explain the problem, and he says he'll call you back in a couple of hours.
A couple of hours later, your accountant calls back and tells you that he's negotiated the $9,000,000 down to $15,000 as long as it's paid in cash.

When the crew get VIP treatment, whisked out of the (Military) back gate of the airport and your senior-pilot minder signs for all the drinks*
You're on a high profile national sports team government contract - FACT!
* Partly because he's 'interested' in a stewardess (well, actually, any stewardess)

Edit, just read it. No going for a walk with my Doberman....
Harare newspaper headline said: "man killed in aircraft crash", and reading on, it reports that an old Antonov has crashed on takeoff from a rural strip in Angola, killing a man who stopped by the side of the strip TO RELIEVE HIMSELF!

If a thread hasn't been commented on in a while it drops off the bottom of the list. Last post was May 23, so I am guessing that it takes a month to drop off.

Airbus crew of a major EU carrierer arrived at the crew hotel in Nairobi. Bus stopped, door opened, the very junior hosty (first time in Kenia) stepped out of the door and the friendly porter welcomed her with a smile and the typical "JAMBO, JAMBO" . Hosty replied: "No no, Airbus"
