Stolen from Mil Forum

One Ive heard from the crewroom . .

A Herc captain whilst boarding points to his luggage on the pan and tells the loadie " Loadmaster, my luggage "

On arrival at some far flung place the captain is unable to find his cases

Captain " Loadie where are my suitcases ?"

To which the loadie replies " Probably still on the pan where you pointed them out "

I must say I do like this one......

I've personally had to use a catering lorry to offload the crew from a freighter before, all because there was a big step (50cm) out of the a/c.

The stairs were broken and we were unable to raise them any higher.

A punch line I heard to that one was
" Well ...remember that slight bump as we started to taxi?"

Variation on a theme.......

..........Captain of C130 says to Loadie after landing off an airdrop sortie: ''seen my hat anywhere, Loadie?''

''It was on the load last time I saw it , Skip!!''

Cheers all,

Another variation. (I wasn't the perpetrator but I did witness it).

Very pukka BOAC captain walks into tin-shed terminal at BNE and says to stressed check-in agent:

I say traffic, will our bags be all right out there on the footpath?

Yes Captain. They'll still be there when you get to Singapore.

(In memory of Russell)
