ATC humour
A true story...........
After an hour and a half of a US KC135 bashing the visual cct at an RAF station somewhere at the far end of the Med. A female has been doing all the radio calls and finally asks to land. As the 135 vacates and approaches the tower a male voice says
'A****** Tower @@@@ confirm dispersal and bay'
'@@@@ A***** Tower your parking blah blah blah'
'@@@@ thanks tower'
There was a pause, just to let them get abeam the tower and then
'I see you still had to get a man to park it........'
A little while later, when the bun fight out to the east was on, a USAF KC135 that was arriving in theater calls
'A****** Tower, Alaskan Airlines @@@ short finals to land'
Big thinks bubble........(from both of us)
'Your a long way from home.......Cleared to land.'
Working a a Whiltshire transport base
'L****** zone G-JRRR requesting a RIS'
'Romeo, Romeo, Romeo L****** Zone where for art thou?'
