For a couple of weeks now, I've been trying to find a certain couple of entries on this board.

You're going to have to be more specific about the ATC jokes. There are probably hundreds floating around the internet.... ;D



But for the maintenance....




Never let it be said that ground crews and engineers lack a sense of humor. Here are some logged maintenance complaints by pilots and the corrective action recorded by mechanics. P stands for the problem the pilots entered in the log, and S stands for the corrective action taken by the mechanics.

P: Left inside main tire almost needs replacement.

S: Almost replaced left inside main tire


P: Test flight OK, except autoland very rough.

S: Autoland not installed on this aircraft.


P: Something loose in cockpit.

Oddly enough, I have NOT seen most of those ATC ones. I especially like the C-5 one.

Qantas is the only airline without an accident?  Have you read the news lately?   ;D  I'll fix that for you, Qantas is the only airline without a fatal accident.

Love the post though, these never get old, even my non-aviation friends get a kick out of them.

The quote about Qantas was part of the original post.  I forgot to actually check my facts before posting the comments. ::)  Suddenly I feel like Fox News . . . ;)
