In another famous SR-71 story, Los Angeles Center reported receiving a request for clearance to FL 60 (60,000 ft). The incredulous controller, with some disdain in his voice, asked, "How do you plan to get up to 60,000 feet?The pilot (obviously a sled driver), responded, "We don't plan to go up to it, we plan to go down to it. He was cleared.-------------------------------------
The pilot was sitting in his seat and pulled out a .38 revolver. He placed it on top of the instrument panel, and then asked the navigator, "Do you know what I use this for?"The navigator replied timidly, "No, what's it for?" The pilot responded, "I use this on navigators who get me lost!"The navigator proceeded to pull out a .45 and place it on his chart table. The pilot asked, "What's that for?""To be honest sir," the navigator replied, "I'll know we're lost before you will."...........................................
There's a story about the military pilot calling for a priority landing because his single-engine jet fighter was running "a bit peaked."Air Traffic Control told the fighter jock that he was number two behind a B-52 that had one engine shut down."Ahhhh," the pilot remarked, "the dreaded seven-engine approach."..........................................
