Nothing Unusual Happened.

G'day All,

I just thought I'd report that I flew SYD-CNS-SYD yesterday and absolutely nothing unusual happened.

Unless of course you consider departing a few minutes early on both sectors and also arriving a few minutes early twice, getting the levels I wanted, a hi-speed descent with no restrictions, reasonable loads, no technical snags and a pleasant crew unusual.

Regards,
BH.

Ah finally an outlandish story to get Pprune back to its sensationalist roots!

I thought Pprune hadn't had anything earth-shattering for a while....

Wait till Today Tonight have a piece of this!

AIRSPACE REFORM HITS NEW SNAG!

Flight unimpeded.
18 June 2009 Rooters;

Reports are coming in from Sydney airport where an inbound flight from Cairns was mere minutes from being late. Shocked passengers staggered off the flight to also discover that their bags had arrived. "It was eerily calm, nobody panicked" said Mr. Al Kadeesh of Cronulla.

"We are working in an unknown area" stated the Sydney Terminal Manager, "These are unprecedented events in our time & I ask for calmness whilst we sort through the known facts"

We sought comment from Dick Smith as he was being wheeled into an Ambulance by paramedics, but all he shouted was "I told you so!" as the straight jacket was applied.

yep, put him in a straight jacket and feed him viagra tablets- that should cause him enough distraction to keep his mind off aviation for a while.......

You have'nt been taking your tablets have you? You do realise what will happen now, ALL aircraft will be expected to be on time, no excuses, and after all the years us old blokes took to get management to accept our concept of being on time, you have blown in one single flight. I swear to God the younger generation are just a pain in the Ar#e!

You then made your way effortlessly through the terminal to the taxi rank where you were greeted by an Australian taxi driver who put you in his spotlessly clean low kilometre Falcon and drove you to your destination without getting lost or going the long way!

That is stretching the bounds of credibility just a tad, don'tcha think Stationair8?

Would be nice if it were possible though!

Harden up, Princess. A little light-hearted banter here hardly needs to go to feralsville.

Feralsville? How dare you Sir! We have standards at JB...I can't seem to locate them at the moment, but they're here somewhere...
