The pilot sees a tall building, flies toward it, circles, and holds up a handwritten sign that says ‘WHERE AM I?’ in large letters. People in the tall building quickly responded to the aircraft, drew a large sign, and hold it in the window.
Their sign says ‘YOU ARE IN A HELICOPTER.’ The pilot smiles, waves, looks at his map, determines the course to steer to SEATAC airport, and lands safely. After they are on the ground, the copilot asks the pilot how he had done it.
“I knew it had to be the Microsoft Building, because they gave me a technically correct but completely useless answer.”
