In a 172 at KMCO.....holding short of the active as a thunderstorm is about to roll in. As i called up ready for takeoff.....a southwest 73 reported windshear and possible microbusrt activity on the departure end. So tower doing the right thing asks the delta triple seven infront of me what his intentions were? Smartly, the heavy along with everyone behind him said they were going to shut down an engine and wait it out. THEN to my embarrassment....tower asks me my intentions and if i still wanted to depart!?? HAHAH def heard a few laughs on the radio for that one! Thanks!

A pilot from one of the other planes said: Did you check your ovens!

Than it went dead silent, no body said anything.
I heard about this in 1990 when I worked at JFK and that it happened at JFK. The flight had to return to the gate because they were missing 3 passengers........

Supposedly DLH was really peeved and demanded the Port Authority pull the ATC tapes and they tracked the voice down to a TWA F/O who was fired but not sure if that is really true.

That wasn't funny at all. He / she should have been fired for that...

chicago app: United 123 do you have the runway in sight.

United 123: I don't, but my first officer does.

Chicago app: United 123, your f/o is cleared the visual.

ATC: Aircraft XXX contact departure
AC XXX: Schlong, you have a nice one

--------

ATC: Aircraft XXX position and hold runway 18L
AC XXX: Pull it out and hold it 18L

--------

Going into an airport where you have to back taxi in order to get full lenght a colgan SF340 came in and laid on the brakes and put the props in deep reverse to turn off....at the intersection we were holding at. They started to turn when tower came on "uh, colgan xxx you are gonna have to go down to the next one. That one is obviously not available"

Default A good weather report..

Didn't happen to me, but a funny story from a guy I used to fly C-141's with at Travis AFB...

Flying into Diego Garcia, the crew called in to the weather shop there for an update. They were given the winds, temperature and pressure altitude along with the note that "towering cunilingus were observed over the airfield." Imagine their disappointment on arrival when all they saw were large, white puffy clouds

Two more I forgot about....

Student: Um....ground....we are ready to taxi...vfr...key west....
Ground: Roger, if you're going to be taxiing the whole way suggest US 1...if you're going to takeoff first you can go ahead and taxi to Runway 5

And the other...the aircraft in front of me apparently had a radio malfunction and after a couple failed calls finally switched comms and reported this:

A/C: Tower, how do you read??
Tower: Left to right, top to bottom, how about you?

I see other's have posted something similiar but I can't resist.

FPR airport.

There was an airplane on approach and the student pilot had a heavy foreign accent.

Tower told him to go missed and then in a very frustrated voice asked, "Warrior XYZ, what are your intentions."

Warrior XYZ, heavy accent "My intentions are to be a commercial airline pilot."

I was laughing so hard we had to land so I could go use the restroom!

VRB airport.

Warrior XYZ " Tower there's a turtle on the taxiway."

Tower "Warrior XYZ understand turtle on taxiway Bravo."
Tower "Warrior ABC, use caution there's a turtle on taxiway Bravo."

Warrior ABC "Turtle in sight...Uhh...Tower, Was he cleared to cross because he's headed for the runway?"
