Find a different airline next time. That is if y’all land safely.

Hey, at least they were prepared to handle the problem.

Nice WIDE isle on that plane..!!

(Best Han Solo) “I’ve got a BAD feeling about this!” ;D

Oh, Sweat!!

He needs a sniff to land the plane.

Looks like a job for…

… duct tape, the handyman’s helper.

They really should keep a tube of that in the cockpit.

Comedian Jerry Clower once said, “Boeing is a terrible name for an airplane. It sounds like something is falling off.”

It’s nice to seeing Bleeb is flying First Class.

Aaaakk! What was it this time? The emergency exit?

Good one! Thanks for starting off my day with a laugh!

The pilot wants to get a high, but will the plane…

The autopilot must be deflating!

The pilot wont need an engine to fly that plane once he opens the glue

and in the immortal words of Joey Ramone: now I want to sniff some glue, all the kids want to sniff some glue

Umm, Bleeb, you might want to flit somewhere else pretty soon…

Umm. No! Airplane glue won’t repair a shattered wing.

Quote from the pilot: I picked a bad time to quit sniffing glue” …

I still prefer gorilla glue

That’s really funny, reread it and laughed again, thanks John…and a third time…

What is going on in the air transportation lately. Near misses on runways, clipping wings taxi around, crazies on planes. Is this more of easing safety standards as with trains?

The passengers experience a sudden confidence crash.

Hope you brought a parachute, Bleeb.

Don’t get in a huff (until you close the door). :)

Talk about a sticky situation.

Not a really good sign…..

You mean they’re gonna have to blow some glue in the co*kpit. I better leave before I get in trouble.

Is that to help the crew “adhere” to airline regulations?

Right up there with the delayed flight where the pilot told us they were working on the engine mounts . . . Would have been a great time to lie !!!

Did he pick the wrong week to stop sniffing glue?

“There is no need to panic.”

Ah, thanks for the memories of my model building days. I remember Revell had a magazine with a series of stories based on a magical sci-fi gizmo that allowed model aircraft to be converted into real ones. Maybe it was some kind of simulation.
