Перевод нуженA Tragedy in the AirThe plane had taken off from the air-fieldin London, and the journey to South Africa,to Johannesburg to be exact, had started.It was just after the war, and it was not ajet, as is the case nowadays, but it was abig plane with four engines, and fourpropellers, of course.When a few minutes later we werecrossing the Channel, one of the engineswent wrong, but the stewardess left andthe passengers were quite safe.However, when the plane reached theMediterranean Sea, the second enginebroke down, but the stewardess told usthere was nothing to worry about becausetwo engines were quite enough to keep usin the air.As we got near to the shores of Africa, therumour spread that only one propellerwas working. The stewardess kept hermouth shut, this time, but we came to theconclusion the plane must have developedengine trouble and so it had.Presently we were flying over the jungle inCentral Africa and my fellow travellerswere terribly upset. Women were holdingtheir children tighter and tighter and menwere drinking more and more heavily.There was also a person there who wassaying a prayer in a loud voice. I too wasterribly frustrated, and as I looked down atthe bush, I could not help thinking ofcannibalism, death and other pleasantthings.At that moment, the loud-speaker wasswitched on, and the captain’s voice washeard: "Ladies and gentlemen, I havetragic news for you".The faces of all the passengers turnedpale. Some burst into tears, and the prayerstifled in the parson’s mouth. My heartsank into my boots.The captain continued in a gloomy voice: "It is my sad duty to inform you thatEngland has lost her last football matchagainst Scotland!"
