Fun in the Air





Here are a few funny radio messages, captured from the vastness of the ether, from aviation forums and blogs: conversations between cockpit and tower:
.
Tower: "To avoid noise, please turn 45 degrees to the right." Pilot: "What can we do for noise at 35,000 feet?" 
Tower: "The noise, when your Boeing727 collides with the 737 in front of you!"
.
Tower to a pilot who put down particularly hard: "A landing should not be a secret, passengers should know when they are down." 
Pilot: "Never mind, they always clap anyway."
.
Pilot: "Have only little fuel and urgently request instruction." Tower: "What's your position? I do not have you on the radar !!!" 
Pilot: "We are on lane 2 and now have been waiting for the refueling for ages."
.
Tower: "Height and position?" 
Pilot: "I am 5ft, 10” tall and sit in the front left."
.
Tower: "Are you familiar with the approach procedure?" 
Pilot: "Sure, what do you want to know?"
