| When Are Pilots Happy? |
| One fine hot summer afternoon there was a Cessna 150 flying in the pattern at a quiet country airfield. The Instructor was getting quite bothered with the student's inability to maintain altitude in the thermals and was getting impatient at sometimes having to take over the controls. Just then he saw a twin engine Cessna 402 5,000 ft. above him and thought, "Another 1,000 hrs of this and I qualify for that twin charter job! Aaahh.. to be a real pilot going somewhere!"

| Another 4 funny aviation jokes |
| compilots writes "There's a story about the military pilot calling for a priority landing because his single-engine jet fighter was running "a bit peaked." Air Traffic Control told the fighter jock that he was number two behind a B-52 that had one engine shut down. "Ah," the pilot remarked," the dreaded seven-engine approach.""

| Define 'JOB'... / Gary Hall |
compilots writes "Fortunate enough to be stationed near family for a time early in my carrier, I lived in a large house with my Mom, Sister and Niece. It worked out well because I was gone quite often TDY and hated paying for an apartment I seldom got to use.
When my Niece would ask where Uncle Gary was, my family would tell here exactly what I was doing that day."

compilots writes "Unbelievable - U2
This story was told to me by my father (a former SR-71 RSO) several years ago. I cannot remember the names or squadron information or even where it happened. But I do know that it is true.
A U-2 is nearing final approach when (it was later determined) the pilot has a seizure. The plane then under its own control begins a slow descending turn to the right, with the right wing hanging down to the ground at about 45 degrees."
