A man is talking to a clerk at the airport. There is a plane outside the window.
The plane is a biplane, which is not flown in the modern world.
Is the man flying on that plane?
It’s only a 12 second flight.

The wright brother's plane, depicted at this modern airport, famously first flew for only 12 seconds. The idea that the modern commercial airline would be running this flight for business travelers like the man with the suitcase is funny. Usually short flights are good because you get to your destination faster, but the 12 second flight here won't get the man anywhere.
