Lalit was a photographer for the Deccan Chronicle, and was scheduled to meet a plane on the runway to take him on a job. “Hit it,” said Lalit climbing into the first plane he saw on the runway. The pilot took off, and was soon in the air. “OK,” said Lalit, “fly low over the trees over there, I want to take a few pictures.” “What do you mean?” asked the pilot. Lalit looked at the pilot and answered a little annoyed, “I need to take some pictures for the Deccan Chronicle, so please…..” There was a long pause, before the pilot asked in a shaky voice, “you mean you’re not my pilot instructor?”
