| Dear Lufthansa
Airlines |
|
|
|
|
I will be
taking a party of wine-lovers to Germany this summer for an informal tour of
the Mosel and Ruhr valleys. As I have always been most impressed with German
engineering and efficiency - I did my National Service in Minden, Westphalia so
I know what I am talking about, having seen it at first hand - and as I have
also received very good reports on the Lufthansa in-flight catering I have
decided to fly with your airline. If your bratwurst and pumpernickel are up to
the standard of Air 2000's lasagne then we are in for a rare
treat.
Rather than fly on one of your scheduled flights I
would like to charter one of your aeroplanes, if that is at all possible. Not
too large a one of course, as that wouldn't make economic sense. I don't
exactly know what you have in your hangars at the moment, but an aeroplane
about the size of the German one in the film 'The Heroes Of Telemark', which I
have been reliably informed was a Heinkel Bomber, would be admirable - although
that aeroplane in particular had machine-gun turrets front and back if my
memory serves me correctly, and we wouldn't want it to have those of
course.
Incidentally, if you haven't seen 'The Heroes Of
Telemark' it is is one of the best war films it has been my pleassure to see,
and I can thoroughly recommend it. I am sure you would enjoy it too, even
though your side doesn't win. We wish to travel around the 25th of May and
return, with lots of lovely German wines, three weeks later. I look forward to
hearing from you with flying times and prices.
Yours
sincerely
T Ravenscroft (Mr) |
