Kennismaking van jonge copiloot met oudere captain, tien minuten voor begin van vlucht:

Captain:

"All this (wuift beide handen langzaam van links naar rechts over het gehele instrument paneel) is MINE!"

"THIS (wijst op push-to-talk knopje op yoke van copiloot) is yours!"

Zoals verteld door een vriend van me, copiloot op een B-1900.

"It beats working for a living", "somebody has to do the job", "It's allmost criminal to take the money, but otherwise somebody else would" en "An other day, an other dollar"

van m'n collega en nee, ik vlieg niet voor een airline!

Van PPrune: "This is a cockpit, you're a resource, prepare to be managed."

Weliswaar geen one-liner maar toch wel waar...

Man walks into a bar with a cat on his shoulder, holding a bucket of shit in one hand and a shotgun in the other...
He summons the bartender over and orders a large beer,downs it in one big gulp.
He then cocks the shotgun,shoots the bucket ,splashing shit all over the bar,after which he chases the cat out of the bar,leaving the bartender and the other guests totally baffled...

About a week later the same guy walks into the bar with the cat on his shoulder,a bucket of shit in one hand and a shotgun in the other;He calls the bartender over and orders a large beer.
The bartender replies:
-" Oh no,no that again !Last time you started like that ,you covered my entire bar in shit,everybody was scared stiff and that stuff with the cat an' all,no way you're getting that beer!"
Man-" but bartender,how am I going to complete my training then?"
Bartender-"What the .....What training are you talking about?What are you in training for?"
Man-" To become an airline pilot!"
Bartender- "How does that stuff you pulled last week train you to become an airline pilot?"

"Easy,I do al little drinking,I shoot a little shit,I chase a little pussy and then I take five days off....."

-

Was that a landing or where we shot down?

Flying is not dangerous, crashing is..

Try to keep your number of take-offs equal to your number of landings.

Everybody knows that a good landing is a landing from which you can walk away from. But a tremendous landing is a landing after which you can use the airplane again.
