Whenever I plant one I say (in a voice like I just won a prize fight):

"Take that ...EARTH!"

Cheers,

1 word. Windshear.



I loved that sign outside of the Springfield airport in the Simpsons:

Springfield International Airport
The Birth Place of Windshear

"Next time I won't let the controller (or autopilot) land it." Just say something that will confuse the he11 out of them, so they'll tell their friends and sound really stupid.

Another one, "Was it you that left your cell phone on?"

"We thought you had it!"

When flying the RJ with stairs for the passengers to exit down I'd give the offending passenger a little push on the way down and when they fell in a crumpled heap I'd proclaim: "How was your landing? Not so easy is it?"
