One is a defunct airline and the other manages bunch of dam electrical plants and reservoirs.

Oh, stop it. It's just a parody thread. Every time someone bumps that Power Take Off thread, it just cries out to me for a parody.

Doesn't look like anyone is flocking to your thread, KG...
 
That's because it's rather fowl.

Too much baggage, I guess.
 
Well, you know how they are. They probably wouldn't put their tray tables in the upright and locked position, anyway.
 
Or they are just a bunch of chickens...

A plane's cabin was being served by an obviously gay flight attendant, who was obviously enjoying himself. He swished down the aisle and announced to the passengers, "Captain Marvey has asked me to announce that he'll be landing the big scary plane shortly, lovely people, so if you could just put up your trays, that would be super."On his trip back up the aisle, he noticed that a woman hadn't moved a muscle. "Perhaps you didn't hear me over those big brute engines. I asked you to raise your trazy-poo so the main man can pitty-pat us on the ground."She calmly turned her head and said, "In my country, I am called a Princess. I take orders from no one."The flight attendant replied, without missing a beat, "Well, Sweet Cheeks, in my country, I'm called a Queen, so I outrank you. Put up your tray, Honey."
