This is Captain Sinclair speaking. On behalf of my crew I’d like to
welcom e you aboard British Airways flight 602 from New York to
London.

We are currently flying at a height of 35,000 feet midway across the
Atlantic.”

“If you look out of the windows on the starboard side of the
aircraft, you will observe that both the starboard engines are on
fire.

“If you look out of the windows on the port side, you will observe
that the port wing has fallen off.”

“If you look down towards the Atlantic ocean , you will see a little
yellow life raft with three people in it waving at you. That’s me
your captain, the co-pilot, and one of the air stewardesses. This is
a recorded message.”
