8 jokes about airports
Speaking of airports in
Germany, the one servicing the
Hamburg area is known to be staffed by a rather snooty ground control crew. They expect you to know exactly where to go and what to do, which may lead to frustration on the part of aircraft
captains new to the route. This is the account of one such flight in particular, concerning a senior captain ...
"Tower, British Airways one-seven, completed rollout, awaiting further instructions."
"British Airways one-seven, this is Hamburg ground, clear to taxi to Gate Seven."
"Roger, Hamburg ground, request directions to Gate Seven."
"British Airways one-seven, have you never been to Hamburg before?"
"Yes, a number of times, Hamburg ground, in 1944, but we did not stop!"

Germany jokesAn airliner is coming into land at an airport obscured by fog. Visibility is practically nil, the ILS system is on the blink, so the
pilot has to land on wits alone. "Flaps, check," he says to the copilot, "
Landing Gear, check. Altitude, check. Right, we're going in. Hold on." The
plane lands and comes to a screeching, grinding halt; just short of the edge of the
runway. "Holy Cow!" exclaims the pilot, "This must be the shortest runway I've ever landed on!" The copilot looks left and right and says "Yeah, and about the widest, too ..."

pilot, I am out of

Tower: "Roger Cessna 12345, reduce airspeed to best glide!! Do you have the airfield in sight?!?!!"
Cessna: "Uh ... tower, I am on the south ramp; I just want to know where the fuel truck is."

pilot jokesA crowded flight is cancelled, and a frazzled
agent must rebook a long
line of inconvenienced
travelers by herself. Suddenly, an angry
passenger pushes to the front and demands to be on the next flight, first class.
Agent: "I'm sorry, sir. I'll be happy to try to help you, but I've got to help these folks first."
Passenger: "Do you have any idea who I am?"
The gate agent grabs her public address microphone, "May I have your attention, please? We have a passenger here who does not know who he is. If anyone can help him find his identity, please come to gate 17."
The man grits his teeth, "Screw you."
She replies, "I'm sorry, sir, but you'll have to stand in line for that, too."

landing:
"We ask you to please remain seated as Captain
Kangaroo bounces us to the terminal."
