Comic #1751

1 Stewardess: We need to land. The nearest airport is Delhi.
1 Terry: I'll use the radio.
1 Stewardess: I'll take care of the pilots.
2 Terry: {into radio} Delhi air traffic control? This is Highland Airlines flight HL16. Our pilot and co-pilot are incapacitated. We need emergency landing clearance.
3 Delhi Air Traffic Control: {over radio} Sorry HL16, you can't land here. We're dealing with our own emergency situation. We're talking down a sailplane infested with tarantulas.
4 Steve: Crikey! Spiders on a glider!

Look, don't ask me, I didn't make it up.


2018-06-29 Rerun commentary: "Sailplane" is an alternative name for what I've always known as a glider. I was happy for the purposes of this comic to discover that they also had another relatively common name. I don't think I'd ever heard of it before researching this strip.

The microphone Terry is speaking into is actually the handle end of a Lego screwdriver.
