  • Wooo, a song about an airplane!

    We've got a 747 coming down in the night
    There's no power, there's no runway lights
    Radio operator try to get a message through
    Tell the flight deck New York has no lights
    There's no power what do we do?
    747 coming down in the night
    Try to get a message through

    We were strangers in the night
    Both on separate flights
    Strangers in the night
    Going nowhere

    This is Scandinavian one-o-one
    Flight from Hawaii coming out of the sun
    Kennedy should be in sight
    We can't see a thing here in the night
    Navigator says we're on the flight path
    There's no radio, no sign of life
    This is Scandinavian one-o-one
    For God's sake, get the ground lights on, because

    There's a 747 going into the night
    There's no power, they don't know why
    They've no fuel, they've got to land soon
    They can't land by the light of the moon
    They're overshooting, there's no guiding lights
    Set a course into the light
    Scandinavian one-o-one
    For God's sake get your ground lights on
    I walked across an empty land
    I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
    I felt the earth beneath my feet
    Sat by the river and it made me complete

              Re: Wooo, a song about an airplane!

              Actually, with a few modifications, this song could sum up Air New Zealand in the 1970's (before the Erebus disaster, and before the Rotal Commission into why 257 people plunged to their death over the starkly beautiful Antarctic landscape... let all of them rest in peace.)

              ANTARCTIC ALERT

              We've got a DC-10 coming down in the light
              There's no navigagation, I'm not trained to fight
              Radio operator try to get a message through
              Tell the flight deck we're just about though
              Mount Erebus, right in front of us
              Might as well be an Airbus
              For all the good it'll do....

              We were strangers in the night
              Both on this doomed flight
              Strangers in the night
              Going nowhere

              This is Air New Zealand Flight 901
              Flight from New Zealand coming out of the sun
              Mt Erebus should be far to our left
              Instead, the fog has left us bereft

              We can't see a thing here in the fog
              Navigator says we're on the flight path
              But Air New Zealand's had a few close calls
              What if we're the one who takes the fall?

              This is flight NZ901
              And God knows, this flight is not any fun
              We don't know the way, and flight control changed the plans
              From right now on in, help me, it's in God's hands

              There shouldn't be that mountain in our path
              Co-pilot? We get out of this,and we'll take a bath
              But there it is, bearing twelve o'clock...
              I tell you co-pilot, Auckland sold us a crock...
