The mistake

1 A photographer named John was flying first class from

London to Nairobi in Kenya when one of the pilots came out

of the cockpit to make some coffee in the microwave. He

couldn’t get the machine to work, so he asked his fellow pilot

5 to help him.

As the other pilot left the cockpit, he let the heavy metal

door close behind him. The pilot started an urgent,

whispered discussion with his colleague. The two pilots had

locked themselves out of their cockpit and, as they told the

10 photographer (who promised not to tell the other passengers),

the door was fitted with a safety lock. This meant that not

even the pilots could open it from outside the cockpit. John

remembered that he had put his Swiss army knife in his hand

luggage. However, he couldn’t remember where he had put

15 his hand luggage and spent five minutes opening and closing

overhead lockers until he found it. John and the pilots

attacked the door with the knife, the lock started to come

loose, and when they broke into the cockpit, the plane was

cruising eastward over the Indian Ocean.
