  B-52s saw their first active duty in Viet Nam.  They are now older =
than some of the crews that fly them out of Diego Garcia and other =
places.  BUFFs they are called.  Big Ugly Fat Fellows.  Incredibly piece =
of machinery.  Right in there with the top multi-engine designs of all =
time. =20

  [Pilot humor is priceless:

  There's a story about the military pilot calling for a priority =
landing because his single-engine jet fighter was running "a bit =
peaked."

  Air Traffic Control told the fighter jock that he was number two =
behind a B-52 that had one engine shut down.

  =20

  "Ah," the pilot remarked, "the dreaded seven-engine approach."]

  [Here's some more, from an 'Aviation Jokes' file I've put together:

  A student became lost during a solo cross-country flight. While =
attempting to locate the aircraft on radar, ATC asked, "What was your =
last known position?"=20
  Student: "When I was number one for takeoff."

  =20

  =20

  Taxiing down the tarmac, the 757 abruptly stopped, turned around and =
returned to the gate. After an hour-long wait, it finally took off.=20

  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."

  =20

  "Flight 2341, for noise abatement turn right 45 degrees." "But Center, =
we are at 35,000 feet. How much noise can we make up here?"=20

  "Sir, have you ever heard the noise a 747 makes when it hits a 727?"

  The German air controllers at Frankfurt Airport are 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") after landing:

  Speedbird 206: "Top of the morning Frankfurt, Speedbird 206 clear of =
the active runway."

  Ground: "Guten Morgen! You will taxi to your gate!"

  The big British Airways 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 a moment ground, I'm looking up our gate =
location now."

  Ground: "Speedbird 206, have you never flown to Frankfurt before?!?"

  Speedbird 206 (coolly): "Yes, I have, in 1944. In another type of =
Boeing, but I didn't stop."

have the airfield in sight?!?!!"=20
  Cessna: "Uh...tower, I am on the South ramp; I just want to know where =
the=20

  A man telephoned an airline office in New York and asked, "How long =
does=20
  it take to fly to Boston?"=20
  The clerk said, "Just a minute."=20
  "Thank you," the man said and hung up.=20

the=20
  agent. "I want a round trip ticket," says the man. "Where to?" asks =
the=20
  agent. "Right back to here."=20

  A passenger piled his cases on the scale at an airline counter in New =
York=20
  and said to the clerk, "I'm flying to Los Angeles. I want the square =
case=20
  to go to Denver and the two round ones to go to Seattle."=20
  "I'm sorry, sir, but we can't do that."=20

  In his book, Sled Driver, SR-71 Blackbird pilot Brian Shul writes: =
"I'll always remember a certain radio exchange that occurred one day as =
Walt (my back-seater) and I were screaming across Southern California 13 =
miles high. We were monitoring various radio transmissions from other =
aircraft as we entered Los Angeles airspace. Though they didn't really =
control us, they did monitor our movement across their scope.  I heard a =
Cessna ask for a readout of its ground speed. "90 knots" Center replied. =
 "Moments later, a Twin Beech required the same." "120 knots," Center =
answered.=20

  =20

  We weren't the only ones proud of our ground speed that day as almost =
instantly an F-18 smugly transmitted, 'Ah, Center, Dusty 52 requests =
ground speed readout.' There was a slight pause, then the response, "525 =
knots on the ground, Dusty."

  "Another silent pause. As I was thinking to myself how ripe a =
situation this was, I heard a familiar click of a radio transmission =
coming from my back-seater. It was at that precise moment I realized =
Walt and I had become a real crew, for we were both thinking in unison." =
"Center, Aspen 20, you got a ground speed readout for us?" There was a =
longer than normal pause .... "Aspen, I show 1,742 knots"

  No further inquiries were heard on that frequency.

  =20

  =20

  In another famous SR-71 story, Los Angeles Center reported receiving a =
request for clearance to FL 60 (60,000ft). The incredulous controller, =
with some disdain in his voice, asked, "How do you plan to get up to =
60,000 feet?

  The pilot (obviously a sled driver), responded, "We don't plan to go =
up to it, we plan to go down to it." He was cleared.

  =20

  =20

  The pilot was sitting in his seat and pulled out a .38 revolver. He =
placed it on top of the instrument panel, and then asked the navigator, =
"Do you know what I use this for?"=20

  The navigator replied timidly, "No, what's it for?"=20

  The pilot responded, "I use this on navigators who get me lost!"=20

  The navigator proceeded to pull out a .45 and place it on his chart =
table.=20
  The pilot asked, "What's that for?"=20

  "To be honest sir," the navigator replied, "I'll know we're lost =
before you will."

  =20

  Tower: "Delta 351, you have traffic at 10 o'clock, 6 miles!"=20
  Delta 351: "Give us another hint! We have digital watches!"

  =20

  =20

  One day the pilot of a Cherokee 180 was told by the tower to hold =
short of the runway while a MD80 landed. The MD80 landed, rolled out, =
turned around, and taxied back past the Cherokee.

  =20

  Some quick-witted comedian in the MD80 crew got on the radio and said, =
"What a cute little plane. Did you make it all by yourself?"=20

  =20

  Our hero the Cherokee pilot, not about to let the insult go by, came =
back with: "I made it out of MD80 parts.  Another landing like that and =
I'll have enough parts for another one."

  Cheers
