those are good, here are a few more along the same lines.



While taxiing at London Gatwick, the crew of a US Air flight departing
for Ft. Lauderdale made a wrong turn and came nose to nose with a United
727.
An irate female ground controller lashed out at the US Air crew, screaming:
"Us Air 2771, where the **** are you going? I told you to turn right
onto Charlie taxiway! Your turned right on Delta! Stop right there. I
know it's difficult for you to tell the difference between 'C' and 'D',
but get it right!" Continuing her rage to the embarrassed crew, she was
now shouting hysterically: "God! Now you've screwed everything up!
It'll take forever to sort this out! You stay right there and don't
move till I tell you to!
You can expect progressive taxi instructions in about half an hour and I
want you to go exactly where I tell you, when I tell you, and how I tell
you!
You got that US Air 2771?" "Yes ma'am", the humbled crew responded.
Naturally the ground control communications frequency fell terribly
silent after the verbal bashing of US Air 2771. Nobody wanted to chance
engaging the irate ground controller in her current state of mind.
Tension in every cockpit out in Gatwick was definitely running high.
Just then an unknown pilot broke the silence and keyed his microphone,
asking: "Wasn't I married to you once?"
================================================== ====================
A DC-10 had come in a little hot and thus had an exceedingly long roll
out after touching down. San Jose Tower noted: "American 751, make a
hard right turn at the end of the runway if you are able......If not,
take the Guadalupe exit off Highway 101, make a right at the lights and
return to the airport."
================================================== ==================
Unknown aircraft waiting in a very long takeoff line: "I'm f...ing bored!"
Ground Traffic Control: "Last aircraft transmitting, identify yourself
immediately!"
Unknown aircraft: "I said I was f...ing bored, not f...ing stupid!"
================================================== =================

The German air controllers at Frankfurt Airport are renowned as a
short-tempered lot. They not only expect one to know one's gate parking
location, but how to get there without any assistance from them. So it
was with some amusement that we (a Pan Am 747) listened to the following
exchange between Frankfurt ground control and a British Airways 747,
call sign Speedbird 206. Speedbird 206: "Frankfurt, Speedbird 206 is
clear of active runway."
Ground: "Speedbird 206. Taxi to gate Alpha one-seven."
The BA 747 pulled onto the main taxiway and slowed to a stop.
Ground: "Speedbird, do you not know where you are going?"
Speedbird 206: "Stand by, Ground, I'm looking up our gate location now."
Ground (with arrogant impatience): "Speedbird 206, have you not been to
Frankfurt before?"
Speedbird 206: (coolly): "Yes, twice in 1944, but I didn't stop!"
================================================== ==================
O'Hare Approach Control to a 747: "United 329 heavy, your traffic is a
Fokker, one o'clock, three miles, eastbound."
United 239: "Approach, I've always wanted to say this.....I've got the
little Fokker in sight."
================================================== ===================
A Pan Am 727 flight waiting for start clearance in Munich overheard the
following:
Lufthansa (in German): "Ground, what is our start clearance time?"
Ground (in English): "If you want an answer you must speak in English."
Lufthansa (in English): "I am a German, flying a German airplane, in
Germany. Why must I speak English?"
Unknown voice from another plane (in a beautiful British accent):
"Because you lost the bloody war!"

"Unknown airport with Cessna 150 circling overhead, identify yourself." That first solo cross country flight is often a memorable occasion. :eek: :D

Of course the rest of the joke is that since all small airports in the area will be on the same unicom frequency, and with a good chance there is a Cessna 150 in the pattern at all of them at any given moment, in the end he probably had to land and ask somebody. :gomer:
