Idiotic Radio Calls

[Skull-One]

Heard a B-737 from Southwest once get slam dunked...from WAY up high. After they landed you could hear applause in the background.

TWR: "Southwest 592, Welcome to Earth."

SWA: "Thanks. What's that in the background?"

TWR: "Applause. There was a pool up here on whether or not you'd make it. I think some people won a lot of money."

___________

Same thing happened to us once a long time ago in BNA. TWR asked us if we could make it down from where we were (previous controller left us high).

"Sure we can make it."

When we were on short final....

"Chautauqua Space Shuttle, cleared to land."

It was cool.

In San Antonio there is this chick controller with a really sexy voice. She always embellishes everything and signs off with, "SEE YA LAAAAAAAAATER!" or "GOODAYYYYYYYYYYY!" or "BUH-BYYYYYYYYYYYYYYE."

The T-38s out of Randolph are call sign "Scary." She always talks to them with this spooky voice when they check on or off. "Scaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrry 36, contact departure, goodaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyy."

South Bend Approach: "Mesaba 3322 contact Kalamazoo approach 119.2"

Mesaba: "Over to the Zoo - 19.2 - Mesaba 3322"

The rhyme flowed so well I swear he had been rehearsing it all morning in anticipation.

Just remembered another one. I was in training when it happened at Comair Academy in Sanford. We were in the runup area and heard a very interesting conversation.

Pilot in thick Chinese accent: "Cessna 12345 stopfuqingaround."

<Silence>

Controller: "Who was that?"

Pilot: "Cessna 12345 stopfuqingaround!"

Controller: "WHAT?"

Pilot: "Cessna 12345 stop**fuqing**around!"

The instructor quickly jumped on the radio and saved the day.

The poor student was China East Airlines trainee and he was trying to say, "Cessna 12345, Sanford Ground."



It was priceless.........

Were those the same guys that made this transmission?

ATC: "Cessna 12345 Say intentions."

Cessna 12345: "My intention is to become an airline pilot."

After a Cessna took off:

Tower: Hey Cessna N### is that a STOL airplane?

Cessna: No, we paid for it.

Heard on Miami approach, from an Airbus behind a 172 at International:

MIA "Northwest 123, traffic ahead is a Cessna doing 110, I need the slowest you can give me on the approach."

NW 123 "Roger sir, Northwest 123 is dropping the anchor"

From the archives...

After a long night of driving freight in Texas, heard a metro driver check on with regional approach..Approach asked the guy if he had Dallas Love Field in sight, after a long pause the metro guy responds, "yup..in sight" Approach clears him for the visual approach at DAL, the metro makes a hard right turn, the wrong way, towards DFW, the contoller responds "MetroXXX, YOUR LOOKIN FOR LUV IN ALL THE WRONG PLACES"


I met that controller many years later while non reving he said he had been waiting years to use that line.

Keep em comming!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ooops?

Don't worry, I left the spelling police a long time ago, unless it's relevant to the post. I just thought that one was amusing given the topic.
