A Small, 14-seat Plane Is Circling For A Landing In Allentown.

HomeShort JokesAviation

A small, 14-seat plane is circling for a landing in Allentown. It's totally
fogged in, zero visibility, and suddenly there's a small electrical
fire in the cockpit which disables all of the instruments and the
radio. The pilot continues circling, totally lost, when suddenly
he finds himself flying next to a tall office building.

He rolls down the window (this particular plane happens to have roll-down
windows) and yells to a person inside the building, "Where are we?"

The person responds "In an airplane!"

The pilot then banks sharply to the right, circles twice, and makes a perfect
landing at ABE.

As the passengers emerge, shaken but unhurt, one of them says to the pilot,
"I'm certainly glad you were able to land safely, but I don't understand how
the response you got was any use."

"Simple," responded the pilot. "I got an answer that was completely accurate
and totally irrelevant to my problem, so I knew it had to be the PP&L
building."
