Talking Aviation joke for the day

The plane's entrance opens, two men dressed in Pilots' uniforms walk up the aisle. Both are wearing dark glasses, one is using a guide dog, and the other is tapping his way along the aisle with a cane.

Nervous laughter spreads through the cabin, but the men enter the cockpit, the door closes, and the engines start up. The passengers begin glancing nervously around, searching for some sign that this is just a little practical joke. None is forthcoming. The plane moves faster and faster down the runway, and the people sitting in the window seats realize they're headed straight for the water at the edge of the airport territory. As it begins to look as though the plane will plough into the water, panicked screams fill the cabin.

At that moment, the plane lifts smoothly into the air. The passengers relax and laugh a little sheepishly, and soon all retreat into their magazines, secure in the knowledge that the plane is in good hands. In the cockpit, one of the blind pilots turns to the other and says, "You know, Bob, one of these
days, they're gonna scream too late and we're all gonna die."

Yeah I really look forward to some nice and warm weather in the middle of winter! I'll be staying in Cape Town though as my family likes to celebrate X-mas and New Year's in our house there.
I'll probably be in Johannesburg in April, so maybe I'll contact you then.

Cheers,
Gianluca

Yeah I heard about this one before. Very funny.

Okey here's a good one. IMO

--------------------
The Christmas airport
It was a few days before Christmas. The trip went reasonably well, and he was ready to go back home. The airport on the other end had turned a tacky red and green, and loudspeakers blared annoying elevator renditions of cherished Christmas carols.

Being someone who took Christmas very seriously, and being slightly tired, he was not in a particularly good mood. (Almost a scrooge) Going to check in his luggage (which, for some reason, had become one suitcase with entirely new clothes), he saw hanging mistletoe. Not real mistletoe, but very cheap plastic with red paint on some of the rounder parts and green paint on some of the flatter and pointer parts, that could be taken for mistletoe only in a very Picasso sort of way.

With a considerable degree of irritation and nowhere else to vent it, he said to the attendant, "Even if we were married, I would not want to kiss you under such a ghastly mockery of mistletoe."

"Sir, look more closely at where the mistletoe is."

"Ok, I see that it's above the luggage scale which is the place you'd have to step forward for a kiss."

"That's not why it's there."

"Ok, I give up. Why is it there?"

"It's there so you can kiss your luggage good-bye."

An Aer Lingus Plane has just lifted off, following a Ryanair plane..

"Tower this is Aer Lingus five oh one, reporting dead animal lying three quarters of the way down the runway."

"Roger Aer Lingus five oh one, message copied, object will be removed immediately"

"Tower this is Ryanair three zero five... cancel the Aer Lingus call, we have already advised our catering people to collect..."
