BBrrrrrrrr BBRrrrrrrrrr

Hello

Is that the ACME Flying Club?

Yes

Can I speak to the Chief Flying Instructor? I've got a bit of a problem

He's not here at the moment - can you hang on?

And a very good morning to ya'll and welcome to good ole Radio KXYZ, the only station for quality country music. Its 7 o'clock and time for the news.

"A light Cessna aeroplane has crashed on landing at DownTown airport. Officials say that the single engined airplane, with two crew on board, was coming into land when it snagged high tension wires at the edge of the field. The airplane is at this moment in time still tangled in the wires but a senior Fire Officer has said that the crew will be released momentarily."

So here's a song specially for you two intrepid birdmen, its Glen Campbell singing 'Wichita Lineman'

local paper headline "Nimby's Revolt"

"Pests in the local area were that large, normal fly-paper wouldn't suffice. Local residents had to resort to an elaborate set of wires suspended from telegraph poles to catch these low flying critters..."
