This is your captain speaking. We're currently cruising at an altitude of approximately six feet above Mainland Street, coming in for our final approach to YBC...please return your seats to the perky position and remain upright; you haven't had THAT much to drink! I'd also like to let you know I'm a famous bush pilot. No, really, I haven't got lost yet...although I have had to bail out once or twice~
