"Firefly Air Good Morning, How can we help you?“ the operator responds to an incoming call. Geese honking is heard in the background of the caller. "Shuusshh Evan I try to phone.. Oh I'm sorry, they wont shut up when I call someone. Hi my name is Amelie and I'd like to book you for a special task. Since I heard and red only good from your guys, I think you are the right ones."

"Thank you miss, so how can we help you? "

“Well you hear the honking in the background, its about them. I hatch and raise abandoned geese. In autumn I fly with them down south to their winter quarter around the city New Hope USA.” We found so many abandoned nests and raised more birds this year, I cant go on this journey alone. I cant monitor them alone, I need extra eyes up with me in the air.

“So you want us to fly with you and your flock of birds down south, do I understand you correctly?”

“Yes Sir, if we take our common route, it will be a trip of 4 days. A geese could hold up with an ultra light plane without a problem. We train them first with the Aerolight 103 and they have no trouble to keep up with that. We try at the moment if they can keep up with aaaaah , another voice in the background says– the savage cub – yeah but its just a trying stage ”

“That means, that our pilots will have to fly an ultralight plane or something very slow.”

“Yes Sir, geese go low and slow in compare with a regular flight.”

This sounds like an very interesting journey. I know exact the right pilots for this. We take the job offer. The firefly airline and flying circus will be at your side. Fill us in with the details like Departure, Route, Flight plan.

“Thank you Sir, I will mail you everything.”
