My airplane partner and I were on a short night hop from Lawrence, Massachusetts to Nashua, New Hampshire and had just switched to Nashua tower when we heard the following:
Mooney:
“We need to return and land.”
Tower:
“What’s the nature of your problem?”
Mooney:
“Every time my student touches the throttle, he gets electrocuted.”
Unidentified Voice:
“That’s a good training technique.”
