My favorite is still:
"When is ATC gonna learn? You don't tell a DC-9 to go directly to a fix, you tell the fix to go to the DC-9."
Classic! Whoever came up with that (80 or ftb) should know, I mutter that every time ATC tries to send us to a fix. (And give you both credit for it, because I can't remember who said it.)
Goodnight.

As buzz stated... the sim today knew better than to tempt one of newK's minions. I've gotta say... the 73N sims we have feel more like an airplane than any full flight sim I've ever flown.
I'm going to have to eat my words on the 73N..... I really am enjoying the airplane. Big old school throw switches and old school logic combined with state of the art avionics. I finished my left seat qual with the HGS today- I want a HUD on my side!
There was some beastly looking guy wearing a viking hat beating at the hydraulic legs as I was walking into the briefing room. new?
I cannot take credit for that quote- nor can ftb or anyone on this site. All things good in any language come from the worldwide coalition of bad@$$ airplanes.
