We quote:
“A while ago I was a passenger on an airliner traveling from New York to Los Angeles.
About an hour into the flight, the flight attendant clicked on the loudspeaker and announced that the pilot and co-pilot has suffered heart attacks and were both dead. She went on say that the plane was flying on automatic pilot, but they did not know what they would do when it came time to land.
But, I knew what to do.
I reached into my carry-on bag and pulled out my copy of Alcoholics Anonymous - the hard copy version which I always carry with me. I opened the Big Book, and there they were, instructions on how to fly and land a commercial jet airliner.
I told the flight attendant that I knew what to do, and she escorted me to the flight deck, which was empty, the bodies of the flight crew having been removed.
I entered the flight deck, sat in the captain's seat, took out my copy of the Big Book and propped it up in front of me. Then I followed the instructions and was able to land the jet liner and save the lives of 300+ passengers and crew.
All of this thanks for following the instructions as set forth in the Big Book.
The moral of my story is that the answers to all of life's problems are set forth in the Big Book.
All we have to do is follow the instructions as set forth in the Big Book.”
