“But really! Why do you want us to send up another Concorde?' Sheard was under orders to follow the Doctor's instructions to the letter, but felt obliged to make a token protest at the man's fantastic notions. The Doctor explained his plan yet again. 'We must follow the same route, same height, same speed. And, with my equipment on board, I can identify what I believe to be an exponential time contour.' This was the second time the Doctor had advanced the idea of a time slip. On the first oc...casion Sheard pretended he hadn't heard. Now, out of self-respect, he felt obliged to challenge such unscientific nonsense. 'You really believe that Victor Foxtrot flew into ... a time warp?' Not even Douglas Sheard's withering scepticism diminished the Doctor's self-confidence. 'Exactly. And you can't have a navigational hazard like that hanging about the galaxy.' Sheard counted slowly to ten. The man was obviously a lunatic. All the same, if it ever got out that the Airport Controller had co-operated in this madcap scheme, he would be the laughing stock of the whole airline industry.MoreLessRead More Read Less
