One morning my student and I were taxiing to the runup area. We overheard this conversation between a student pilot and ground control.
Student: Euhhhh Riverside Ground Cessna 1234 RVS Ground: Cessna 1234 go ahead Student: yeah euhhh I'm on my first solo and euhh when I lower my flaps they go euhh down and come back up an inch, and then go "ert err ert err" (making squeaking noise over radio). Ground: Cessna 1234 what do you want to do? Student: euh well euh that's what I'm not sure of, my flaps go "ert err ert err" Different instructor comes on the radio and tells him to taxi to parking. |
Approach: (Excitedly) Continental XXX contact tower!
Pilot: Roger over to [background radio altimeter "One Hundred"] tower. 30 seconds go by... Pilot: Continental XXX with you on the go around. Departure: Continental XXX roger, fly runway heading, climb maintain 5,000. Got a pretty good laugh out of that one. We were on downwind and watched him go around. Pretty funny watching it all go down. |

I heard about this in 1990 when I worked at JFK and that it happened at JFK. The flight had to return to the gate because they were missing 3 passengers........
Supposedly DLH was really peeved and demanded the Port Authority pull the ATC tapes and they tracked the voice down to a TWA F/O who was fired but not sure if that is really true. TDX |

On a red-eye flight from SLC to IAH:
Me (getting bumped around in cruise): Center, do you have any ride reports at FLXXX? Center: Hold on, FedEx 1234, how is your ride at FLXXX? FedEx 1234: No complaints from the back! Center: There you have it, Jetlink. Me: Ugh, thanks FedEx... |
Enroute from SEA to BZN, last flight out. I'm flying with an older captain, one of those guys who just doesnt care anymore, but in a funny way :) we're about 15 miles east of seattle when we get the call from SEA Center
"Horizon XXX proceed direct FEBUS, direct BZN" Captain replies: "Uhhhhhhh, say again...direct Beavis, like Beavis & Butthead?" Seattle replies: "Horizon XXX, negative...Foxtrot, Echo, Bravo, Uniform, Sierra" Needless to say, i was dying...i wanted to make a PA to the passengers saying "Point of interest, off to the left you can see Beavis from Beavis & Butthead" |
We need more on this thread...
Oveheard the other day: Washington Center: "Nxxxx, Cleared direct destination, rest of route unchanged." |
