The airline had a policy…
…that required the first officer to stand at the door while the passengers exited, smile, and give them a ‘Thanks for flying XYZ airline.’
The airline pilot on this particular flight had hammered his plane into the runway really hard. In light of his bad landing, he had difficulty looking the passengers in the eye. All the time he thought that a passenger would have a smart comment.
However, it seemed that all the passengers were too shell-shocked to say anything.
Finally, everyone had gotten off except for this little old lady walking with a cane.
She asked, ‘Sonny, mind if I ask you a question?’
‘Why no, Ma’am,’ said the pilot, ‘what is it?’
‘Did we land or were we shot down?’
