I've seen most of them but they're always good for a laugh.

GC: "Laker DC-10 hold behind the Skyvan please."

DC-10 pilot: "Roger GC. Is that thing in front of us the Skyvan or the box it came in?"

Skyvan pilot: "It's paid for and it's front of you, mate..."



An RAF Nimrod flying over to the US was intercepted off the east coast by a couple of ANG F-16s who maneuvered around it, locked it up on radar a couple of times, and made it clear that they could shoot it down if they wanted to.

F-16 pilot: "Whaddaya think of the show?"

Nimrod pilot: "Very impressive, but I bet I can do something you can't do. Watch this."

The Nimrod then flew on straight and level for 10 minutes.

Nimrod pilot: "What did you think of that then?"

F-16 pilot: "What do we think of what? What did you do?"

Nimrod pilot: "I went down the back and a had steak sandwich and a good sh*t..."

The version I have heard is that the Nimrod shut down two engines.
