ALWAYS ASK, NEVER ASSUME!!!
ALWAYS
ASK, NEVER ASSUME!!
His
request approved, the CNN News photographer quickly used a cell phone to call
the local airport to charter a flight.
He was told a twin-engine plane
would be waiting for him at the airport.
Arriving at the airfield, he
spotted a plane warming up outside a hanger.
He jumped in with his
bag, slammed the door shut, and shouted, 'Let's go'.
The pilot taxied
out, swung the plane into the wind and took off.
Once in the air, the
photographer instructed the pilot, 'Fly over the valley and make low passes so I
can take pictures of the fires on the hillsides.'
'Why?' asked the
pilot.
'Because I'm a photographer for CNN, he responded, 'and I need to
get some close up shots.'
The pilot was strangely silent for a moment,
finally he stammered, 'So, what you're telling me, is ...
You're
NOT
my flight instructor?'
"Life
is short.
Drink
the good wine first"
