Don't know if they are true or not but they are funny.
------------------------------
ACTUAL EXCHANGES BETWEEN PILOTS AND CONTROL TOWERS:
Tower: 'Delta 351, you have traffic at 10 o'clock, 6 miles!' Delta 351: 'Give us another hint! We have digital watches!' ************************************************************************************************** Tower: 'TWA 2341, for noise abatement turn right 45 Degrees.' TWA 2341: 'Center, we are at 35,000 feet. How much noise can we make up here?' Tower: 'Sir, have you ever heard the noise a 747 makes when it hits a 727?' ************************************************************************************************** O'Hare Approach Control to a 747: 'United 329 heavy, your traffic is a Fokker, one o'clock, three miles , Eastbound.' United 329: 'Approach, I've always wanted to say this..I've got the little Fokker in sight.' **************************************************************************************************** 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?' Student: 'When I was number one for takeoff.' *************************************************************************************************** A DC-10 had come in a little hot and thus had an exceedingly long roll out after touching down. **************************************************************************************************** A Pan Am 727 flight, waiting for start clearance in 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 Unknown voice from another plane (in a beautiful British accent): 'Because you lost the bloody war!' **************************************************************************************************** Tower: 'Eastern 702, cleared for takeoff, contact Departure on frequency 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 behind Eastern 702, contact Departure on frequency 124.7. Did you copy that report from Eastern 702?' BR Continental 635: 'Continental 635, cleared for takeoff, roger; and yes, we copied Eastern... we've already notified our caterers.' ***************************************************************************************************** One day the pilot of a Cherokee 180 was told by the tower to hold short of the active runway while a DC-8 landed. The DC-8 landed, rolled out, turned around, and taxied back past the Cherokee. Some quick-witted comedian in the DC-8 crew got on the radio and said, 'What a cute little plane. Did you make it all by yourself?' The Cherokee pilot, not about to let the insult go by, came back with a real zinger: 'I made it out of DC-8 parts. Another landing like yours and I'll have enough parts for another one.' **************************************************************** ************************************ < |

Great stuff. Never gets tiring hearing good pilot-controller exchanges.
