Stuck in Istanbul
Our departure has been further delayed now by a mysterious development - the motor on the captain's chair on our charter plane is reported to be broken. Much hilarity in Istanbul - parts are being flown by F-16 from London. (I made that up - at least the F-16 bit...)
Nobody here knows why a captain's chair has a motor - are there any pilots reading the blog?
Some reporters are demanding a per diem. Others are hoping to stay and become Ritz-based local reporters...
