Aviation jokes

Just a few for the road, with a special thanks to Filip Jonckers of IVAO for sending this through to the IVAO-BE members.

Heard a while back at Frankfurt:
Ground: 'Speedbird XXX taxi gate 32'
Speedbird aircraft stops on taxiway while pilot checks map
Ground (in sarcastic voice): 'Speedbird XXX taxi stand 32, or have
you not been here before?'
Speedbird XXX ' Yes. but that was 1944 and we didn't stop'

'How far behind traffic are we?'
'Three miles.'
'That doesn't look like three miles to us!'
'You're a mile and a half from him, he's a mile and a half from
you...that's three miles.'

'I can see the country club down below...look's like a lot of
controllers out there!'
'Yes, sir, there is...and they're caddying for DC-10 drivers like
you.'

'Citation 123, if you quit calling me Center, I'll quit calling you
twin Cessna.'

'Caution wake turbulence, you're following a heavy 12 o'clock,
three...no, lets make it five miles.'

Lady Controller at Heathrow tower is trying to get the landings nice
and smooth..decides to turn a jet on to finals later than normal...

Tower: 'TWA 761, Can I turn you on at 5 miles'
TWA761: ' Well, Ma'am, I wasnt expecting the pleasure ..but you
certainly can try'
