Overheard on ATC

[OPECJet]

Gotta get "jacked" off the tug.:laugh:

Funny for two reasons. One... obvious... Two, the ATL rampies....

 

[Crzipilot]

Down in ATL center, controller was rattling off instructions in his normal beat. Fairly busy, When Airtran checks on. Atl Ctr. answers Clittoris 101 roger.

Few mins go by...

Atl: Clittoris turn to head xxx....
After a few more times, we are rolling, I key in....did he just say Clittoris???

controller catches on, and now is dragging out the pronunciation, and giving Clittoris alot of attention.

Airtran boys didn't seemed amused at all. Few guys keyed up asking where the Clittoris was and such......made my day...

 

[DrewBlows]

I was blasted by a Comair -700 once, and pretended to key the mike, but keyed the intercom. I said "Thanks for the blow job, Comair, that's the second time you f---ed us". My FO thought I transmitted and almost died.

How bad is that really? My captains swear that airplanes behind us can't even tell, I think they are crazy. I digress.

Atlanta, a thunderstorm overhead, every ramp is closed because of lightning, everyone who has starteed taxiing has their engines shut down. Some bright individual inquires about the delay...

"...ground what's the delay for?" (Here's your sign.)

Same delay, a few brave souls have tested the waters and departed. Things have started moving, but not very fast.

"Ground, Delta 123, can you give us a heads up when it's our turn? We don't want to get caught with our pants down."

...several seconds of uncomfortable silence, I couldn't help myself.

"What are you doing with your pants down?"

Game on.

After another minute or so of comments such as "What is Southwest doing here?", ground finally sounded off.

"I don't have time for this guys."

About the blow, wouldn't have been that bad, except that I was in an ATRah back then.

And ground delays get pretty funny at Hartsfield. It's like Open Mike Night at the Improv.

Yeah.......I'm gonna have to go ahead and raise the BS flag on this one. N118AT belongs to ATP and was acquired by ATP in early 2000 new from the Piper store. I was employed by ATP from the time that N118AT was delivered until recently. Never had any pilots with accents like that and furthermore, ATP aircraft were not supposed to be going into KDAB unless approved by Dispatch, which I never approved. Chances are, if it was in a mid-east accent and actually happened, it was either Ari-Ben, ERAU, or DCA.

This story happened before your 118AT was born.

...another ATL delay...we're all shut down. I'm in 'hotel mode' in the ATRah...I asked ground if she was sure we'd be sitting there for a while cause "we have some folks that need to use the potty". she says

"yea it'll be a while, potty use is approved and cleared for number 2"

of course a few other guys chimed in on that one.

 

[Morning Wood]

It's always amazing how many people have actually heard ATC conversations like this one above or the "F'ing bored, not stupid" one.

I wonder how many people have actually heard this one too:

Center: Airline XYZ please expidite descent to cross [intersection] at 11,000
Airline XYZ: Ahh, unable [intersection] at 11,000
Center: Don't you guys have airbrakes on that thing?
Airline XYZ: Airbrakes are for our screwups, not yours.

Just like all the people who have claimed to have heard the exchange about
telling the professional pilots to remove their gear pins. Or about when
so and so was going to remove the "training wheels" from their DC-10-30.

It is a true story. I was an instructor at Phoenix East from 2001 thru 2003. They had lots of forgein students and a number of airplanes that ended in Alpha Tango. I was there that day and the student was mine. I never said it was 118AT. I don't remember the tail number. We were in a Warrior that day, so the tail number would have been something between 134AT and 140AT.

"Speedbird 123 can you make 190 by XYZ?"

"I'm sure we can but we won't be able to bring the aircraft with us I'm afraid."

Heard somewhere back in the 80's IIRC

 

[8HourPilot]

(ZAU Center) : Calling Chicago Center say again?

(Unnamed FO) : Your MOM.

(ZAU Center) : No Pal, Your Mom.

(Unnamed FO) : Let's not bering Nancy into this.

 

[Jack Mehoff]

(un named FO) Delays to Swann depatures thats unusual...
(un named CA) You're unusual.....
(un named FO) You!
(un named CA) You!

 

[8HourPilot]

Uh there were NO delays over Swann, that was a fun night. The ATIS should have mentioned moderate death all quadrants.

The best part was sitting out on the ramp 30 feet from the gate for 3 hours with a full plane and an MEL'd lav.

 

[8HourPilot]

With that blonde hair and morally casual attitude, even you could get laid in three hours at the gate.

[Jack Mehoff]
