There was a pilot flying a small single engine charter plane, with a
couple of very important executives on
board. He was coming into Seattle airport through thick fog with less
than 10m visibility when his
instruments went out. So he began circling around looking for landmwithheld.
After an hour or so, he starts
running pretty low on fuel and the passengers are getting very nervous.
Finally, a small opening in the fog
appears and he sees a tall building with one guy working alone on the
fifth floor. The pilot banks the plane
around, rolls down the window and shouts to the guy "Hey, where am I? To
this, the solitary office worker
replies "You're in a plane." The pilot rolls up the window, executes a
275 degree turn and proceeds to
execute a perfect blind landing on the runway of the airport 5 miles
away. Just as the plane stops, so does
the engine as the fuel has run out.
The passengers are amazed and one asks how he did it. "Simple" replies
the pilot, "I asked the guy in that
building a simple question. The answer he gave me was 100 percent
correct but absolutely useless,
therefore that must be Microsoft's support office and from there the
airport is just a while away."
