hmm... gotta find a way to post it bigger. Here's the dialog.

"Mag check good... So, what's on the manifest?" ----------------- "Hmm, a few crates of rubber chickens for Smack Vending Co.. ...don't they do our vending machines?" ----------------- "That would explain those sandwiches. Gear up?" ----------------- "Ooh. I feel the one I had for lunch bouncing around already. Gear coming up."

I like the multi-panel format, though... I'm going to see if I can find a host that'll do 'em bigger, or if I can just cut it down to two panels and find a happy medium with font size. I'm thinking of some jokes, and a couple are mixed up from stuff I've heard in the past.

You know you've become an ATC nerd when all you can think of is "phraseology" when you see atc stuff. Nice comic, that would ruin a controllers day. ;)

Yeah. I was kinda modeling one of the guys at LIT. He's crotchety and doesn't worry too much about what anyone thinks of his radio manner. Once I called for clearance to drive around runways 4 and 36 on the perimeter road (it was close enough to the runways to require clearance from Ground), and he replied, "You guys are killin' me! Go around, and don't call me again." My boss overheard on the line shack radio, and called the tower to confirm that we had an all-day clearance, to which the guy replied, "Whatever."

Sure. After all, any joke I "make up" could have actually been one I heard somewhere else and forgot. Go for it. |:)\

Not yet... maybe "Pixel Pilots" or something... I haven't really thought about it yet.

I guess this one's more an insider joke with folks who watch football. I don't, but my wife does, and this is 'her' airplane in FSEconomy.
