That was one of the Jokes from David Gunson's "What goes up might come down" [1]; an after dinner speech given and recorded in the early 80's. It's 50 minutes long, which briefly takes you through his history as a fighter pilot, self employed civil servant doing ATC and then gives the listener some handy hints on how to fly, take-off and land a jumbo yourself (should you ever find yourself in that situation) as well as some musings on Concorde.
A truly hilarious and surprisingly educational listen, recommended to anyone who likes flying and Pythonesq humour. Stunningly quotable as well.
I caution that there are a couple of questionable and dated jokes made, but for early 1980's it's surprisingly PC.
