THANX!! Best collection I have EVER read! My wife asked what could be so funny to have me laughing out loud, on a reloading site. Most good jokes won't do that. Kinda makes me think of a story related by a pilot as we moseyed across the sky . . . They was departing from XXX and departure gave them notice of some severe thunderstorms in front of them and released them. A few minutes later while maintaining their heading departure called back and asked if they had radar. He proudly announced that they were indeed radar equipped . . . . the final warning about the thunderstorm intensity was simple . . . " I suggest you turn it on!" Don't limit your challenges . . . Challenge your limits | |||

You have to be a pilot to really get the full effect out of these. This was my favorite: Cessna 152: "Flight Level Three Thousand, Seven Hundred" Controller: "Roger, contact Houston Space Center" | |||
