Airplane to Tower: "Call me a fuel-truck"
Tower: "Roger, you are fuel-truck" - Pilot enroute: "How it the weather at your airport?" ATC: "Overcast - Cloudcover 10/8" Pilot after a short pause: "10/8? How can that be?" ATC: "Yesterday we had 8/8 but today it looks worse." - Tower: Have you got enough fuel or not? Pilot: Yes. Tower: Yes what?? Pilot: Yes, SIR! - LH741: Tower, give me a rough timecheck Tower: It's tuesday, Sir. - ATC: RFG 312 fly directly to OLNO VOR. Do you need a vector? Pilot: Ah, no, thanks. We can receive the VOR from here. It's in the direction of the moon. ATC: Yes, that's possible, but we don't have the moon on our screen. - Pilot: Tower, there's a taxi-light lit. ATC: Oh, I hope they're all lit. Pilot: Sorry, I mean it's BURNING - Tower: Lufthansa 893, number one, check for workers on the taxiway. Pilot: Roger...(After a short break)...We've checked the workers, they are all working. - Tower: Delta Oscar Mike, squawk 0476. Pilot: Say again. Tower: Squawk 0476. Pilot: Four, zero...? Tower: You want an easier? - Tower: Delta Bravo Charlie, is your squawk really 7046? Pilot: Positive. Tower: Okay, then I'll send you a dredge for assistance. Your altitude is minus 90 feet. - Tower: Delta Fox Alpha, hold position, Marshall will park you. Pilot: Roger. Looking out for John Wayne. - Tower: Mission 123, do you have problems? Pilot: I think, I have lost my compass. Tower: Judging the way you are flying, you lost the whole instrument panel - The story goes that Air Force One was over the UK a few years ago and called up a USAF base "Requesting Radar". "What is you position?" asked ATC "You got radar you find us" Air Force One replied. After a few minutes ATC announced "Air Force One we're changing frequency" "What frequency are you changing to?" asked Air Force One "You've got 720 channels - you find us!" ATC replied. - Pilot on takeoff: "Oh my god! The engine failure light is on; we are all going to die! We are all going to die!” Co Pilot: “Relax, that’s just the intercom” - Tower: To prevent noise, alter heading 45 degrees to the right. Pilot: What kind of noise can we make at 35,000 feet? Tower: The bang when your 707 collides with the 727. - Pilot of an Alitalia, whose cockpit has been paralyzed by lightning: "Everything's dead. Nothing is working anymore. Even our altimeter isn't showing anything .... After five minutes of lamentation the pilot of another flight broadcasts: "Shut up and die like a man!" - Pilot: Have only very little fuel remaining. Request urgent instruction. Tower: What is your position? We don't have you on the screen. Pilot: We're sitting on runway 2 and have been waiting forever on the fuel truck. |
