AT-6 lands on interstate

My brother flies regional jets for American Eagle. Having done some flying myself I asked him once what he would be looking for if he had to make an emergency landing, a large field or perhaps a body of water. He answered, "an airport".  :D

Another story he told me once. One of the guys he was flying with said his captain mistakenly announced their arrival time at Tulsa but in fact they were enroute to Oklahoma city. He mentioned that to the captain and said he'd get it. He then announced over the intercom that he was the first officer and was taking control of the plane and after banking the plane to the left he announced they were now enroute to ok city.  :D
