A helicopter flying in very bad weather was 'Temporaraly unsure of his position'
He slowly descended, warning his passenger to keep a good look out for obstructions.
Out of the gllom appeared a large office building, so the pilot hovered as near as he dared whilst the passenger held up a note saying 'Where are we?'
A guy inside, seeing the 'chopper hurriedly penned a note and held it against the window.
'You are outside my office in a jetranger helicopter' read the note.
The pilot, giving a thumbs up, climbed away, and was soon landing at the airport.
"Well, how did that information help you locate us then" asked the passenger.
"Easy, because the answer was strictly true, but of no use at all, I knew we were at the Microsoft office"
