Default OT Plane Crash because of Birds
wrote:
One of the first things taught in flight school is how to maneuver a
plane with the engine turned off (and do all the other stuff, like
call "Mayday," look for a landing spot, deal with soiled trousers,
etc.). I still remember my instructor, whose name was Sneaky
*******, surreptitiously turning off the fuel supply!

Cough-cough, pop, fizz.... silence!

I wept.

Hey, ever land a glider on water?

My pants were wet. Does that count?
