David Gunson is truely brilliant in this classic after dinner speech.
Far better than most comedians, this dry satirical look at one of the most vital things in the world, had me laughing until it hurt!
The funniest part of it all, is that it isn't a great leap of faith to believe it is all 100% true!
Enjoy.

One day whilst lying on a sunbed in Cyprus I noticed that the man under the next parasol was chuckling incessantly, his walkman obviously keeping him amused.
The flight back home and all those since have not been the same because when he finally removed his headphones I enquired and he lent me the tape; David Gunson's after dinner speech about air traffic control, pilots and the aircraft they are responsible for.
That was quite some years ago, but I have never forgotten the hilarious tale of the French controllers going on strike and the British holidaymakers flying to Spain travelling over Germany and Italy.
I was ever so pleased to find that it was now available on CD. Listen to this and it will change your concept of air travel forever!

I first heard this "after dinner speech" around 20 years ago and it still tops my list of "brilliant humour" all these years later. Put simply, it's extremely funny, well presented and also interesting because of all the facts about Air Traffic Control.
Well worth buying a copy !!!

This is how to do after-dinner speeches!
I heard this years ago and have managed to track down a copy. Only slightly outdated by aviation today, the delivery is slick and timing worthy of a professional stand-up. Read more

Up and down
This is funny the first time you listen, however it is now a bit dated. What is worrying is there may be a degree of truth in it. Good fun if you are not worried about flying.
