The Lazy Journalist’s Plane Story Generator

August 4th, 2008 | 3 Comments | Posted in Personal

Courtesy of Aussie Bloggers Forum, this story generator is a bit of fun:

Adelaide passengers told of their terror aboard a Melbourne bound Qantas flight which was required to return to Adelaide yesterday due to large bits falling off.
Some passengers were distraught that the 309 passengers were told few details of the catastrophe.
They said the plane “porpoised like a dolphin chasing small fish” before turning around.
As a precaution, fire trucks were on standby when the Airbus Concorde landed.
Passenger Bob Kobb last night was still recovering from the ordeal.
“I wasn’t so much worried for myself, but for my children losing their only parent,” the passenger said.

Quite topical given the recent Qantas flight losing bits in mid air over the Philippines.

    I like the “a burning cloth in the fuel cap” malfunction.

    I saw something like that on a Magnum P.I. the other night.

    “Q-q-q-q-qantas n-n-never had a c-crash!!” - Can other people do your hubris for you?

    Retarius, you can select to crash a plane from any of nine airlines if you prefer.
