Any idea if the GUT linebook survived the pongo's takeover. Should be placed in a museum that book. :D

On Sydney Gound not too long ago (most QANTAS aircraft are named after OZ ctiies or towns):

Ground: EAL give way to 767 city of Bundaberg outbound.
EAL: Roger
Ground: OGM your number one to the city of Geelong, taxy to holding point...
OGM: Roger, you've got good eyes!
Ground: Yeah, and I can see the gestures you're making at the tower.
OGM: It's not me, it's the bloke sitting next to me!
Ground: The one with the bad haircut?
OGM: Yeah.

Heard today on the RT:
Frenchperson - '....leaving your fragrancy...'

:rolleyes: ;) :rolleyes:

Today at Dubai Arrivals:

ARR. A/C XXX, slow down 250
A/C Slow down 250 XXX and ,eh, what made you slow us down?

gut logbook
 

i left gut in 85! but dont forget that theres still an raf atc presence. the army wanted to keep the airfield open for the timmys but they forgot to tell the raf untill it was too late!

Before my time but part of LGW legend:

Posh Pilot - "CFE8086 approaching taxiway 2" (but with at least 200m to run)

Northern ATCO - "Well keep on bloody approaching then!"

And the same guy having slighlty miscalculated a deprture gap...

"Take off quickly. Fly slowly!"

:p

GMC: Taxi stand xy

Pilot: Taxi stand xy. Any route?

GMC: Just stay off the grass...

:rolleyes:

One of the controllers here occasionally says (off the frequency) when there is a whining pilot on the frequency :

"Would you like some cheese to go with that w(h)ine sir?"

AND

How about the slip of the tounge on Arrivals (me).

"XYZ123, Cleared ILS APP RWY 30L report likeloser established"

the next 6 or 7 aircraft all readback "LIKELOSER established"

Seemed funny at the time though !!

Hello All

Look in the back pages of loaded in amongst the porn numbers and the cannabis growing kit is an advert for NATS
And in my inbox the afternoon an offical appology

MM

slip of the tongue...

hotel rolf gomeo (golf romeo...) and the classical "slide glope". but only when i'm really overstressed.

and last week heard twice a heading 365 in atc-sim . and in one, a fellow blipdriver read it back :D

cheers

Heard at Eastleigh:

"Navy Swordfish solent - report your a/c type"

After being told the local standby is for an RT fail a/c - "Tower fire 1 - once landed can you ask the a/c to contact us on 121.6"

Just recalled this gem from the aforementioned cockney wide boy whilst serving at the Gut.

Two French mirages in the circuit, first lands and the second is too tight behind, told to go round. Next approach, told to go round again to which he replies "Ev I 'ave to go 'round again I 'ave to jump out!" Quick as a flash our hero replies "Roger, understand you're fuel priority......."

and of course ....

Virgin with a tight slot .......

quite a while ago in Perth West OZ.....

ATC...long and complete bollocking a pilot for unauthorized level change...

unknown pilot...Perth, do you have another frequency for us that we can use?

ATC...why?

Unknown...theres a p1ssed off tone on this one!

A somewhat overloaded controller famous for going into " Standby " mode at peak times

A/C Twr G-xxxx

ATC Standby shutdown will call you back in five mins

Apparently Scottish worked a plane last tuesday

Tower controller (procedural station, running out of answers) to lightie approaching overhead the VOR on aid work:

"Juliet Echo Mike, maintain five thousand, track visually north of the 360 radial!"
