ATC to Flight 123: "Slow to 300 knots please." After several moments, it
was apparent the crew had not complied with the first speed reduction
and was overtaking the inbound plane ahead of them.
ATC to Flight 123: "Slow to 280 knots." This was soon followed by a
request for 250 knots from ATC when the crew still had not slowed the
airplane.
Finally, the now-frustrated controller ordered, "Gentlemen, the number
is 250. Either slow to it or turn to it!"

An Aircraft was having an
engine problem. After some time the engine was on fire and the Pilot in
Command asked the cabin crew to ask all passengers to return to their
seats and fasten seat belts for an emergency landing. A few minutes
later the Pilot asked the flight attendant if every one was buckled in
and ready ." All set back here" said the cabin crew, "except the lawyers
are still going around distributing their business cards."
