On final approach, cleared to land:

***81 - TWR, Are you familiar with the horse at the end of the runway

TWR - No! ...... but I do know he is there.




And en- route last sunday, 2500ft East Midlands UK. With LARS service for some time, happily burning through the leg when LARS wanted an ETA at an intermediate point on the leg, some distance away. At that time using a 1:250,000.


LARS - ***81, please advise your ETA at AAAA.

(long Silence)

LARS - ***81, please advise your ETA at AAAA!

(long Silence)


***81 - [different voice] Apologies; pilot not flying is having trouble folding his maps!

LARS - We have all been there!
