Thumbs up Flight fun

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 all by 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." Air Traffic Control 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 DC10 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."
====================

ATC: "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?"
==================== :nod:
