Air Traffic Humor; The controller who was working a busy pattern told the 727 on downwind to make a three-sixty (to do a complete circle, usually to provide spacing between aircraft). The pilot of the 727 complained, Do you know It costs us two thousand dollars to make a three-sixty in this airplane? Without missing a beat the controller replied, Roger, give me four thousand dollars worth! __________________________________________ A DC-10 had an exceedingly long roll out after landing when his approach speed was just a little too fast. San Jose Tower: American 751 heavy, turn right at the end, if able. If not able, take the Guadeloupe exit off of Highway 101 and make a right at the light to return to the airport. __________________________________________ Tower: Eastern 702, cleared for takeoff, contact Departure on 124.7. Eastern 702: Tower, Eastern 702 switching to Departure ... by the way, after we lifted off, we saw some kind of dead animal on the far end of the runway. Tower: Continental 635, cleared for takeoff. Contact Departure on 124.7; did you copy the report from Eastern? Continental 635: Continental 635, cleared for takeoff roger; and yes, we copied Eastern. Weve already notified our caterers. ______________________________________________ OHare Approach Control: United 329 Heavy, your traffic is a Fokker, one oclock, 3 miles, eastbound. United 329: Approach, Ive always wanted to say this ... Ive got that Fokker in sight!
