Two (allegedly) real comments:

ATC: 'American 123, descend to altitude 5000' the QNH 1018 millibars'

AA: 'Okay London, could we have that in inches'

ATC: 'American 123, descend to 60000 inches the QNH 1018 millibars'

---------------------------------------------

It goes along similar lines to the gay steward joke, but is meant to be true from a well known BA Captain

ATC: 'Speedbird 123 turn right 60 degrees and descend flight level 210'

Capt You-know-who: 'Right 60 degrees and descend flight level 210, Speedbird 123 and can you tell me the reason for this'

ATC: 'Speedbird 123 you've got Kittyhawk XXX, with the Queen on board, a short distance in front of you'

Capt YKW: 'Well that's just great. You tell Kittyhawk that he's got just one Queen on board; I've got at least 7 and I'd like to maintain height and heading'

(With broad Cockney accent for affect)
