Here's some pilot humor for you in return for the previous quotes thread you made in my honor...enjoy Fett!
Tower: "Delta 351, you have traffic at 10 o'clock, 6 miles!"
Delta 351: "Give us another hint! We have digital watches!"
**********************************************************
One day, the pilot of a Cherokee 180 was told by the tower to hold short
of the runway while a DC-8 landed. The DC-8 landed, 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 yourself?"
Our hero the Cherokee pilot, not about to let the insult go by, came back
with a real zinger: "I made it out of DC-8 parts. Another landing like
that and I'll have enough parts for another one."
**************************************************************
There's a story about the military pilot calling for a priority landing
because his single-engine jet fighter was running "a bit peaked." ATC told
the fighter jock that he was number two behind a B-52 that had one engine
shut down.
"Ah," the pilot remarked," the dreaded seven-engine approach."
****************************************************************
A student became lost during a solo cross-country flight. While attempting
to locate the aircraft on radar, ATC asked, "What was your last known
position?"
Student: "When I was number one for takeoff".
******************************************************************
Taxiing down the tarmac, the DC-10 abruptly stopped, 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 a noise he heard in the engine," explained the
flight attendant, "and it took us a while to find a new pilot."
**************************************************************
A man telephoned the United airline office at Denver International Airport
and asked, "How long does it take to fly to Colorado Springs?"
The clerk said, "Just a minute." (my favorite)
"Thank you," the man said and hung up.
****************************************************************
"Flight 2341, for noise abatement turn right 45 degrees."
"But Center, we are at 35,000 feet. How much noise can we make up here?"
"Sir, have you ever heard the noise a 747 makes when it hits a 727?"
****************************************************************
The passenger piled his cases on the scale at the United counter in New
York and said to the clerk, "I'm flying to Los Angeles. I want the square
case
to go to Denver, and the two round ones to go to Seattle."
"I'm sorry, sir, but we can't do that."
"Why not? You did it last time!"
Tower: "Delta 351, you have traffic at 10 o'clock, 6 miles!"
Delta 351: "Give us another hint! We have digital watches!"
