Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Feb 22, 2025 (message contributor)
Aero Condor was experiencing money problems in Peru and needed to cut back expenses. So, rumor had it they hired two blind pilots.
Story soon spread about these pilots, but no one believed it. So one day the plane was loaded and up came the two pilots, with dark glasses and walking sticks. The passengers laughed and said, "this must be a joke."
The plane taxied down the runway and then prepared for take-off.
The airplane sped off down the runway, faster & faster & faster & they approached the end of the runway. The passengers looked out the windows and saw the end of the tarmac and just as they were about to run out of airstrip, they all screamed.
The pilots then pulled back on the stick and the plane went up and away. The passengers all sighed in relief.
A moment later one pilot says to the other, "one day they aren't going to scream and we are going to be in trouble!"
