Daily Humor...
His request approved, the New York Times photographer quickly used a cell phone to call the local airport to charter a flight. He was told asingle engine plane would be waiting for him at the airport. Arriving at the airfield, he spotted a plane warming up outside ahanger. He jumped in with his bag, slammed the door shut, and shouted,'Let's go.' The pilot taxied out, swung the plane into the wind and tookoff. Once in the air, the photographer instructed the pilot, 'Fly over the valley and make low passes so I can take pictures of the fires on thehillsides..' 'Why?' asked the pilot. 'Because I'm a photographer for the New York Times,' he responded.'And I need to get some close up shots.' The pilot was strangely silent for
a moment. Finally he stammered, 'So, what you're telling me is .... you're NOTmy flight instructor?

Re: Daily Humor...
That would be SUCH bad news for both of them! I got another for you...
On a trans-pacific mission, a fighter was hooking up for refueling with a tanker. After the disconnect, the fighter pilot chatted briefly with the tanker captain. "I certainly am glad I fly a fighter, instead of that butt-ugly tub you drive," said the FP, and with that did a little airshow for the tanker's benefit. The tanker driver told the jock, "Hey, you think that's special, watch this!" For several minutes, the planes flew straight and level with each other. Finally, the fighter jock said, "So what am I supposed to be seeing here?" The tanker cap replied, "Well, I got up, stretched my legs, went to the john, came back up front, got me a coffee and a cheese danish and sat back down. How you doin', buddy?"

Re: Daily Humor...
Kinda like Gospodin,
An F-15 lost all fuel inflight and requested an emergency landing at the nearest airfield. The controller told the pilot to wait for another plane to make it's emergency landing. The F-15 pilot asked what the emergency was on the other plane that got to land before him. The answer:a B-52 with one engine out.

A friend on Facebook brought this to my attention - it's not aviation related but very funny.

OK - so someone posts a joke, two other people reply with other jokes, and I post a funny video yet I'm hijacking the thread?
While you're on your mission maybe you can find a way to stop the 12 year olds on this forum that post the same garbage month after month that happen to be at least 50% of the threads here. Here...I'll start now...it's the 2nd of the month already...when do you think Gemini will announce their August releases?!?!
