Flight 777 and the Crocodile Retirement Parade

This is a work of fiction. Any resemblance to actual crocodiles, actual flight attendants, or actual rooftops is purely coincidental and somewhat impressive. The CDTAS (Crocodile Division of Transcontinental Amusement Services) is a fictional federal adjacent bureau and should not be contacted for employment inquiries, though the authors understand the impulse. "Bahay Kubo" is a beloved Filipino folk song used here as the fictional CDTAS anthem with great affection and zero regulatory approval. No pelicans were consulted during the writing of this book. They seemed unbothered. For permissions, inquiries, or to report a real crocodile wearing a graduation cap, please consult your nearest CDTAS regional field office.
