Tower: "Delta 351, you have traffic at 10 o'clock, 6 miles!"
Delta 351: "Give us another hint! We all have digital watches!"
:D
One day, the pilot of a taxiing Cherokee 180 was told by the tower
to hold short of the runway while a DC-8 landed. The DC-8 landed
hard, rolled out, turned around, and taxied back past the Cherokee.
Some quick-witted comedian in the DC-8 crew got on the radio and
said, "What a cute little plane. Did you make it all by yourself?"
Our hero the Cherokee pilot, not about to let the insult go by,
came back with a real zinger: "I built it out of DC-8 parts. Make
another landing like that and I'll have enough parts for another one."
:D
There's a story about the military pilot calling for a priority landing
because his single-engine jet fighter was running "a bit peaked"
.
Air Traffic Control told the fighter jock that he was number two
behind a B-52 that had one engine shut down.
"Ah", the fighter pilot remarked, "the dreaded seven-engine approach"
:D
A student pilot became totally lost during a solo cross-country flight.
While attempting to locate the aircraft on radar, ATC asked,
"What was your last known position?"
Student, in a trembling voice: "When I was number one for takeoff."
:D
Taxiing down the tarmac, the DC10 abruptly braked, turned around
and returned to the gate. After an hour-long wait, it finally took off.
A concerned passenger asked the flight attendant, "What was the
problem?" "The pilot was bothered by an unusual noise he heard in
one of the engines," explained the flight attendant," and it took us
a while to find a new pilot."
:D
"ATC: Flight 2341, for noise abatement turn right 45 degrees..."
727 Pilot: "But Center, we are at 35,000 feet. How much noise can we make
up here?"
ATC: "Sir, have you ever heard the noise a 727 makes when it hits a 747?"
Delta 351: "Give us another hint! We all have digital watches!"
