As the list is so quiet today with
no "boring flying" postings, I thought these may brighten your day.
However, those who were lucky to fly yesterday at Caboolture should have
had 5 hour day! (I had a fly last Sunday: a 2 hour day of course with me
flying on either side of the two hours :(()

AIRPORT CHATTER Taxiing down the tarmac, the
jetliner 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."
_____ Cessna: "Jones tower, Cessna 12345,
student pilot, I am out of fuel." Tower: "Roger Cessna 12345, reduce airspeed to
best glide!! Do you have the airfield in sight?" Cessna: "Uh...tower, I am
on the south ramp; I just want to know where the fuel truck is."
___ A man telephoned an airline office in New York and asked, "How long does it take to fly to Boston?" The clerk said, "Just a minute." "Thank you," the man said and hung up. _____ A man walks up to the counter at the airport. "Can I help you?" asks the agent. "I want a round trip ticket, "says the man. "Where to?" asks the agent. "Right back to here." _____ A passenger piled his cases on the scale at an airline 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!" _____ "Flight 1234, 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?" This email was cleaned by
