A pilot loses his engine in his single engine F-16.
F-16 pilot: "Mayday, mayday, declaring an emergency. I've lost my engine, and I'm returning to land on runway 36."
Tower: "F-16, roger, your number behind a B-52 with an engine failure. Follow him.
F-16 pilot: "Aaaah, the dreaded 7 engine approach."
Joke goes something like that.
