But I think we can all enjoy a funny pilot story!
In addition to communicating with the local Air Traffic Control facility, all aircraft in the Persian Gulf AOR are required to give the Iranian Air Defense Radar (military) a ten minute ôheads upö if they will be transiting Iranian airspace. This conversation was recorded on the VHF Guard (emergency) frequency 121.5 MHz, while flying from Europe to Dubai ... Iranian Air Defense Radar: 'Unknown aircraft at (location unknown), you are in Iranian airspace. Identify yourself.' Aircraft: 'This is a United States aircraft. I am not in Iranian airspace, I am in Iraqi airspace.'
Iranian Air Defense Radar: 'You are in Iranian airspace. If you do not depart our airspace we will launch interceptor aircraft!'
Aircraft: 'This is a United States Marine Corps FA-18 fighter. Send 'em up, I'll wait!'
Iranian Air Defense Radar: (no response .... total silence)á (sigh) All those playable hours waisted on real life. |

Edited by: Munchees on 07/08/2009 01:02:02 Edited by: Munchees on 07/08/2009 01:01:36 I don't think that's real. That's a reason for war, and any soldier knows that doing something like that is stupid. We don't start wars unless our president tells us too.
Plus if it was real then the Iranian Air Force would have intercepted, and we would have an international crisis on our hands. Iran has a grown a pair (Iran kidnapped UK marines a few years ago when they went into Iranian waters). I'm trying to derail the thread.

Edited by: Agerith on 07/08/2009 01:17:46 I won't attempt to argue it's validity (sp?) beyond stating that in my years of service I've seen and heard less believable stuff happen... As for the lighthouse, again I don't care if it's true it made me laugh. So as a believer in one good turn deserves another: 2 jokes that are funny to tell to women because they won't laugh... What can 9 out of 10 people agree on? Gang r@pe. What's the difference between jam and jelly? I can't jelly my fist up your ass! |

First one was humorous in a macabre sort of way and the second is blatantly incorrect.

Since we are bringing up funny airplane stories, here is one. It is even funnier because it is real.
NTSB Identification: MIA92FA051 . The docket is stored on NTSB microfiche number 46312. Accident occurred Monday, December 23, 1991 in RAINBOW LAKE, FL Probable Cause Approval Date: 5/5/1993 Aircraft: PIPER PA-34-200T, registration: N47506 Injuries: 2 Fatal. THE PRIVATE PILOT AND A PILOT RATED PASSENGER WERE GOING TO PRACTICE SIMULATED INSTRUMENT FLIGHT. WITNESSES OBSERVED THE AIRPLANE'S RIGHT WING FAIL IN A DIVE AND CRASH. EXAMINATION OF THE WRECKAGE AND BODIES REVEALED THAT BOTH OCCUPANTS WERE PARTIALLY CLOTHED AND THE FRONT RIGHT SEAT WAS IN THE FULL AFT RECLINING POSITION. NEITHER BODY SHOWED EVIDENCE OF SEATBELTS OR SHOULDER HARNESSES BEING WORN. EXAMINATION OF THE INDIVIDUALS' CLOTHING REVEALED NO EVIDENCE OF RIPPING OR DISTRESS TO THE ZIPPERS AND BELTS.
The National Transportation Safety Board determines the probable cause(s) of this accident as follows:
THE PILOT IN COMMAND'S IMPROPER INFLIGHT DECISION TO DIVERT HER ATTENTION TO OTHER ACTIVITIES NOT RELATED TO THE CONDUCT OF THE FLIGHT. CONTRIBUTING TO THE ACCIDENT WAS THE EXCEEDING OF THE DESIGN LIMITS OF THE AIRPLANE LEADING TO A WING FAILURE.
2 people may have died, but what a way to go. -------------------------------- CCP can patch away bugs, but they can't patch away stupidity. |

Here's an airplane joke while we're on the subject
A passenger airliner encounters turbulence over the ocean during a long-haul flight. The seat belt sign inevitably comes on and as the turbulence worsens, a stewardess runs toward the ****pit, and hurries back shortly after just as the engines fail.
Over the tannoy she announces "Ladies and gentlemen, we've lost both our engines and are going to be crash landing in a few minutes. I'm sorry to inform you that it's unlikely we'll survive so if you wish to take this opportunity to say goodbye to your loved ones or to pray you should do so."
Around the plane, people's reactions vary from terror to calm acceptance. One woman in her late twenties however, stands bolt upright and shouts over the din, "I haven't been with a man for 5 years. If I'm going to die, I want to die feeling like a woman!"
From halfway up the cabin, a tall, mediterranean looking man stands. He runs his strong, well manicured hands through his shoulder-length, dark, wavy hair and slowly removes his jacket, casting it aside. He approaches the young woman slowly, his stubbled jaw clenched, his deep brown eyes locked on to hers. Her heart beats faster as he undoes and pulls off his tie. As he slowly unbuttons his shirt, she casts her eyes over his tanned and chiselled chest, lower to his firm and toned abdomen. She can't tear her eyes away from this Adonis. She's distracted by the masculine scent of him and catches the shirt he throws toward her out of reflex, listening with her breath held as he leans toward her to whisper, "Iron this." -------------

I was on a four-engined airliner a few years back, when the pilot announced that we'd be an hour late arriving at our destination because an engine had failed.
Then, another engine failed, resulting in an even longer delay.
After that, a third engine went wrong, but the pilot said that it was fine, as the plane would just get to the airport later. I said "I hope the last engine doesn't go, we'll be up here all night!"
True story.

Slightly less funny Iranian Airspace Story
They weren't where they were supposed to be, engaged in activities nothing to do with them, blundered nearly every step of the way, killed 290 civilians and I **** you not, received medals for it.

While taxiing at London's Gatwick Airport , the crew of a US Air flight departing for Ft. Lauderdale made a wrong turn and came nose to nose with a United 727. An irate female ground controller lashed out at the US Air crew, screaming:
'US Air 2771, where the hell are you going? I told you to turn right onto Charlie taxiway! You turned right on Delta! Stop right there. I know it's difficult for you to tell the difference between C and D, but get it right!'
Continuing her rage to the embarrassed crew, she was now shouting hysterically: 'God! Now you've screwed everything up! It'll take forever to sort this out! You stay right there and don't move till I tell you to! You can expect progressive taxi instructions in about half an hour, and I want you to go exactly where I tell you, when I tell you, and how I tell you! You got that, US Air 2771?'
'Yes, ma'am,' the humbled crew responded. Naturally, the ground control communications frequency fell terribly silent after the verbal bashing of US Air 2771. Nobody wanted to chance engaging the irate ground controller in her current state of mind. Tension in every ****pit out around Gatwick was definitely running high. Just then an unknown pilot broke the silence and keyed his microphone, asking:
'Wasn't I married to you once?'

English plane touches down at frankfurt airport. The pilot having never been to frankfurt asks the ground traffic controler directions on taxing to the terminal.
The ground controller for whatever reason responds with "have you never been to frankfurt before?!"
The pilot of the plane replys with "Yeah, we were here in 45 but we didnt stay for very long" And to finish, thank you for reading my sig -------------------------------------------------- If you are still reading i would probably hav posted by now |
