Is this a pan-pan or a mayday?
|
I think it'll be a shsssssssssssssssss :E
|
Ssssssssurely a taipan pan?

Clearly only a PAN PAN until it bites - after all a Golden Tree Snake is otherwise known as a flying snake! After being bitten probably a MAYDAY.
|
In Britain, Pan-Pan; In Australia - Mayday. In Ireland, a hoax.

^^^^ :D :)

Apologies in advance
How can snakes on a plane be taken seriously, its a small problem - all you need is a P2 by the name of Mr S Jackson
For the faint hearted, this does contain some profanity and a little swearing |
Pan Pan? No great snakes.
It wasn't really dangerous, it was only a vindscreen viper. |
Ah, history repeats itself again! In an internation gliding competition flown in Italy, a pilot flying the task announced on air "There's a snake in my glider!"
Helpful recommendations from other pilots followed...."Fly higher, and it will get cold and go to sleep!" "No, don't do that, it will cuddle up closer to you for warmth!" "Is it a poisonous snake? look in the eyes, if they are eliptical it is poisonous..." The pilot decided to land as soon as possible. The next morning, before the competitors launched, unusual care was taken with the daily inspection.... |
In the Far East that would be considered unusually fresh in-flight catering.....
|
In theory, it would be Pan-Pan; in reality it was (quoted from BBC website):

I guess for advice on this point we should refer to the seminal article by P.J.Orourke titled 'How to drive fast on drugs while having your wing wang squeezed' for answers.....
