Are the passengers and person meeting them a right armed force?

WassailingWend has got it right - it's one of those lateral thinking thingies.

Maggie - the gender is unimportant!

They're not arms dealers, Luft Hansa (nice one, bobtanian) or any such!

Start by asking a question.

Here's a suggestion - Q "Is the sex of the person who met the plane relevant?"

A - "no"

Have fun

No Penfold, they aren't one-armed bandits....

Well spotted, Maggie - they all had their left arms missing.

All the passengers have their left HANDS missing, but the person who meets them has his left ARM missing.
Is this so?
ie is it a typo - but I want the answer to the above question!

Penfold Report 3 Jan 2011 00:11

Are they one arm bandits? lol :o)))

suzian Report 2 Jan 2011 23:46

Rule - you can only ask a question to which the answer is either "yes" or "no"

Here's the story:

A plane lands in London. Off the plane come all the passengers. All have their left hands missing. The plane is met by another person, who also has his left arm missing. He smiles, nods, and the passengers then re-embark. They never meet again.

Your task is to work out the story behind this.
