Idiotic Radio Calls

[jetexas]

(This was told to me by a captain I flew with in the Northeast)

It involved a black UAL pilot, ATC and some wisenheimer.
The weather in the area was bad.
There is a fix for departures off EWR named "white"

ATC: Be advised, all white departures have been cancelled!

Wisenheimer: "Does that mean United can go now?"

UAL: Who said that!! Who said that!! I want the tapes! I want those tapes!

sexist but funny

An old CA of mine never said it on the radio but always pretended to say it by clicking on the PTT button and then unclicking it before he spoke - I secretly wanted him to get a stuck mic whenever he'd do this but it never worked out that way :

Female ERJ pilot: XX Ctr - ABC123 checking on level XXX.

My CA: Brand new airplane and already a crack on the seat.

Another one of his "almost responses" . . .

Female CRJ pilot: XXX Twr - ABC123 with you on the ILS.

My CA: Then who's making dinner at your house tonight?

I always wanted the other responses to be "stuck mic'd out", but they never made it to air as far as I know. Responses like, "they let women fly?" and "I thought the flight attendants were supposed to be in the back of the airplane?"

Anna - if you read this - I AM NOT A SEXIST PIG!

The Boston center phrase comes from Cape Air, but the best controllers will always be the 108.2 of Cape approach

holding short

Ok what about some moron that calls "holding short" or "Ready" whent they are 5th in line, maybe we should all pull aside because he never read the AIM

That UAL one is just totally hilarious!!!

This is probably normal, but I see guys half way to the rwy and calling up to say they are ready to go, I'm guesing thats normal?

1. overheard a student: twr, tomahawk xxx 10 mls south, inbound on Juliet.

2. in Napa Valley: twr: cessnaxxx taxi in position and hold. She replies taxi into position and hold and then the mike gets stuck. Uhhh taxi in position and uuhhhh hold. Taxi into so i have to taxi and hold uhhh. What am I supposed to do now? Taxi in position and hold. This goes on for several minutes and twr is asking who's got a stuck mike, not realizing that nobody can't answer him. I get a hold of twr on the ground freq and they finally send a car over to the cessna that is now sitting on the runway asking to herself: when do I get a t/o clearance?

3. myself after landing at Atlantic City: twr: after touch down: taxi to parking , give me a good time. I had never heard that expression so I was thinking, yeah I'm having a good time, nice day to be flying, very nice landing. Twr Nxxxx, give me a good time, Learjet on 1/2 mile final. Now my instructor is getting nervous and tells me to hurry up. Oh is that what twr means with having a good time??

4. near RDU: dept: airline xxx climb to aaa, turn right heading bbb , ccc kts, when passing xyz climb to FL ddd, normal speed.
Reply: sorry sir, that are some big numbers for a small mind, can you repeate all of that but a bit slower?

5. On a joint military/civilian airport in western europe: a russian antonov freighter is trying to get a departure clearance. Delivery reads it of several times but the russians can't get it right, their english is so horrible. Finally clnc goes: antonov, turn right 090, climb and maintain 5000', you'll be in Germany very soon and they can deal with you getting you to moscow.

6. from a Eurocontrol controller: Ahh Clipper 103, welcome, you're cleared direct (releasing the mike) to Lockerby

Eurocontrol, Good morning, Lufthansa xxx at FL yyy, information zzz would like to go direct to Frankfurt if possible.
Lufthansa xxx, this is Eurocontrol, can you repeate everything after good morning?

Heard on tower freq at SFO last week while we were three miles in trail of an MD80 for 28L paired with a 737 for 28R:

"Pardon me, do you have any Grey Poupon?"

"Yes would you care for some?"

"Oh, thank you."

You old military formation guys crack me up!
I Couldn't stop laughing when I acknowledged towers "cleared to land".

Apparently the loadmaster on a USAF C-130 was invited to take the engineer's seat for awhile. He started jabbering away, not realizing that he was transmitting on Uniform instead of over the ICS.

LM: "Hey, this is great! I see why you engineers like this seat so much -- you can see everything from here! This is just like the starship Enterprise! All ahead, Mr. Sulu, warp factor ten!"

Followed shortly afterward by:

ATC: "You wanna get back on intercom, Captain Kirk? You're transmitting on my frequency!"

The loadmaster was awake????
