Otto Pilot Possibly Responsible For Midway Airport Accident
On Thurday, December 8, 2005 a Southwest Airlines Boeing 737 skidded off the end of snowy runway. I know I'm going to catch all kinds of hell for this, but a reliable source has coughed up the following incredible photograph showing a possible reason as to why the plane overshot its mark and crashed through a perimeter fence onto the street which left one child dead:
At this time details are sketchy as to how Otto came to be aboard the flight, let alone allowed into the cockpit. Otto Pilot, famous for his wacky role in the movie Airplane!, is clearly visible in the above photograph.
All other media outlets are now focusing on a possible malfunction in the plane's reverse thrusters and are using this accident as an impetus to spark national discussion on airports with shorter runways. Do you smell a coverup?
Regardless, Chicago's own Mayor Richard M. Daley, (or Richielu M. Daley based on how he runs his administration), a guy with a penchant for ripping up airports he doesn't like, is of course now going to use this accident as an excuse to push his O'Hare Airport expansion plans. Like any good politician (which means "bad human being") he is going to try to please everyone he can. With this in mind, instead of addressing the problem of shorter runways at Midway Airport, I think he should just change the airport name. With a simple name change involving the removal of one letter and addition of two others, the airport could be more accurately described and also contain an implied "caveat emptor" warning to those who decide to fly in or out of it:

I still say that we should just reclaim land from Lake Michigan -- in the same way the Dutch are slowly expanding their country at the sake of the North Sea -- and put a long-ass runway there!

You, my friend, are a sick bastard. I like it. I like it a lot.
