The following story was told by Salvatore Baia,
a pilot who was waiting in his Cessna for take-off clearance one
fine morning at Zurich Airport. The situation was this: Weather:
clear, visibility: good. Take-off runway was two-eight, landing
runway one-six, alternate one-four.
Tower: Alitalia 194, you are cleared to taxi to
runway two-eight; line up and hold. Expect take-off clearance shortly.
AZ194: Ahhh, yes, taxi to two-eight-a and hold-a
after 30 seconds ... Tower: Alitalia 194, cleared
for take-off
AZ194: Ahhh, two minutes, need-a preflight checks
again 30 seconds later ... Tower: ALITALIA ONE-NINE-FOR,
YOU ARE CLEARED FOR TAKE OFF NOW.
AZ194: Ehmmm, yes, yes, take off-a in two minutes
...
In the mean time: runway one-six had a 737 with a wheel emergency
and was blocked. All traffic had to use one-four. An approaching
767 from Cincinnati was guided downwind to land on two-eight. Its
crew had been airborne for more than eight hours ...
Tower:Alitalia 194, expedite take-off, we have
a Delta 767 on final two-eight 2 miles!
AZ194: Ahhh, we need-a dirty more-a seconds...
DL104: Hey Spaghetti, take-off now or I'll fuck
you from behind!
... and AZ194 was taking off - gracefully like a Space Shuttle...
From the 55th Weather Reconnaissance Squadron at McClellan AFB,
CA.
A Weather Recon crew had two enlisted personnel,
and it was their duty to secure all baggage. Some of the other
crew members felt that meant we were to load their bags from wherever they dropped
them. One such member learned how wrong that was when the plane
landed in Alaska in the dead of winter. After searching, he asked
the Flight Engineer where his bags were. The FE asked him where
he had placed them. "Under the wing", was the reply. The FE walked
to the door, looked out and said, "well they're not there now!"
