Subj:     Rules For Frequent Flyers (S470b, DU)
          From: Joke-Of-The-Day-Mail.com on 1/17/2006

No flight ever leaves on time unless you are running late
and need the delay to make the flight.

If you are running late for a flight, it will depart from
the farthest gate within the terminal.

If you arrive very early for a flight, it inevitably will
be delayed.

Flights never leave from Gate #1 at any terminal in the world.

If you must work on your flight, you will experience turbulence
as soon as you touch pen to paper. Or start to drink your coffee.

Only passengers seated in window seats ever have to get up
to go to the lavatory.

The crying baby on board your flight is always seated next to you.

The less carryon luggage space available on an aircraft, the
more carryon luggage passengers will bring aboard.

Subj:     Nervous Passenger Carries A Bible (S117, DU)
          From: Bawdy.Net Collage #299 on 4/26/99

There was a woman who had to do a lot of traveling for her
firm, so she did a lot of flying. Flying made her very,
very nervous, so she always took her Bible along with her
to read, as it helped her relax a bit on the long flights.

On one flight, the man sitting next to her gave a little
chuckle and smirk when he saw her pull out her Bible, and
then he resumed perusing the complimentary magazines. After
awhile, he turned to her and asked, "You don't really believe
all that stuff in there do you?"

The lady replied, "Of course I do. It's Scripture."

He said, "Well, what about that guy who was swallowed by
the whale?"

She replied, "Oh, you mean Jonah. Yes, I believe that, it's
in the Bible."

He asked, "Well, how do you suppose he survived all that time
inside the whale?"

The lady said, "Well, I don't really know. I guess when I
get to heaven, I'll ask him."

"What if he isn't in heaven?" The man asked sarcastically.

"Then you can ask him," replied the lady sweetly.

Subj:     Plane Hired To Fly Over Fire (S112, S786)
          From: RFSlick on 3/21/99
      and From: hilary.miller05 on 2/1/2012

The photographer for a national magazine was assigned to
get photos of a great forest fire. Smoke at the scene was
too thick to get any good shots, so he frantically called
his home office to hire a plane.

"It will be waiting for you at the airport!" he was assured
by his editor.

As soon as he got to the small, rural airport, sure enough,
a plane was warming up near the runway. He jumped in with
his equipment and yelled, "Let's go! Let's go!" The pilot
swung the plane into the wind and soon they were in the air.

"Fly over the north side of the fire," said the photographer,
"and make three or four low level passes."

"Why?" asked the pilot.

"Because I'm going to take pictures! I'm a photographer, and
photographers take pictures!" said the photographer with
great exasperation and impatience.

After a long pause the pilot said, "You mean you're not the
instructor?"

Subj:     Two Arabs And A Jew On A Plane (S103, S505b)
          From: homeschooling.guide on 99-01-17
      and From: jbcary1 on 9/24/2006

Two Arabs boarded a shuttle out of Washington for New York.
One sat in the window seat, the other in the middle seat.
Just before take-off a fat, little Jewish guy got on and
took the aisle seat next to the Arabs. He kicked off his
shoes, wiggled his toes and was settling in when the Arab
in the window seat said, "I think I'll go up and get a
Coke." (Shuttle flights do not have cabin attendants, but
you probably knew that.)

"No problem," said the Jew. "I'll get it for you." While
he was gone the Arab picked up the Jew's shoe and spit in
it. The Jew brought back the coke, when the other Arab said
"That looks good. Think I'll have one too." Again, the Jew
obligingly goes to fetch it, and while he is gone the Arab
picks up the other shoe and spits in it.

The Jew returns with the coke, and they all sit back and
enjoy the short flight. When the plane was landing the Jew
slipped his feet into his shoes and knew immediately what
had happened. "How long must this go on?" he asked. "This
enmity between our peoples... this hatred... your spitting
in my shoes and me pissing in your Coke?"

Subj:     Stealth, Night Before Christmas (DU)
          From: smiles on 98-12-11

Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the skies,
Air defenses were up, with electronic eyes.
Combat pilots were nestled in ready-room beds,
As enemy silhouettes danced in their heads.

Every jet on the apron, each SAM in its tube,
Was triply-redundant linked to the Blue Cube,
And ELINT and AWACS gave coverage so dense,
That nothing that flew could slip through our defense.

When out of the klaxon arose such a clatter,
I dashed to the screen to see what was the matter,
I dialed up the gain and then quick as a flash,
Fine-adjusted the filters to damp out the hash.

And there found the source of the warning we'd heeded,
An incoming blip, by eight escorts preceded.
"Alert status red!" went the word down the wire,
As we gave every system the codes that meant "FIRE"!

On Aegis! Up Patriot, Phalanx and Hawk!
And scramble our fighters let's send the whole flock!
Launch decoys and missiles! Use chaff by the yard!
Get the kitchen sink up! Call the National Guard!

They turned toward the target, moved toward it, converged,
Till the tracks on the radar all finally merged,
And the sky was lit up with a demonic light,
As the foe met his fate in the high arctic night.

So we sent out some recon to look for debris,
Yet all that they found, both on land and on sea,
Were some toys, a red hat, a charred left leather boot,
Broken sleighbells, white hair, and a deer's parachute.

Now it isn't quite Christmas, with Saint Nick shot down.
There are unhappy kids in each village and town.
For the Spirit of Christmas can't hope to evade,
All the web of defenses we've carefully made.

Just look how the gadgets we use to protect us,
In other ways alter, transform, and affect us.
They keep us from things that make life more worth living,
Like love for each other, and thoughts of just giving.

But a crash program's on: Working hard, night and day,
All the elves are constructing a radar-proof sleigh.
So let's wait for next Christmas, in cheer and in health,
For the future has hope: Santa's coming by stealth!

Subj:     Sometimes Life Is Fair (S83, S617b)
          From: RFSlick on 98-08-29

On a British Airways flight from Johannesburg, a middle-aged,
well-off white South African lady had found herself sitting
next to a black man. She called the cabin crew attendant
over to complain about her seating.

"What seems to be the problem, Madam?" asked the attendant.

"Can't you see?" she said, "You've sat me next to a kafir.
I can't possibly sit next to this disgusting human. Find
me another seat!

"Please calm down, Madam." the stewardess replied. "The
flight is very full today, but I'll tell you what I'll do.
I'll go and check to see if we have any seats available in
club or first class."

The woman cocks a snooty look at the outraged black man
beside her (not to mention many of the surrounding passengers).

A few minutes later the stewardess returns with the good news,
which she delivers to the lady, who cannot help but look at
the people around her with a smug and self-satisfied grin.

"Madam, unfortunately, as I suspected, economy is full. I've
spoken to the cabin services director, and club is also full.
However, we do have one seat in first class." Before the lady
has a chance to answer, the stewardess continues: "It is most
extraordinary to make this kind of upgrade, however, and I
have had to get special permission from the captain. But,
given the circumstances, the captain felt that it was outrageous
that someone should be forced to sit next such an obnoxious
person."

With that, she turned to the black man and said, "So if you'd
like to get your things, Sir, I have your first class seat
ready for you." At which point, the surrounding passengers
stood and gave a standing ovation while the man walked to the
front of the plane.

Subj:     Planes Engines Explode
          From: humorlist-digest V2 #98 on 98-04-20

While cruising at 40,000 feet, the airplane shuddered and Mr.
Benson looked out the window.

"Good lord!" he screamed, "one of the engines just blew up!"

Other passengers left their seats and came running over;
suddenly the aircraft was rocked by a second blast as yet
another engine exploded on the other side.

The passengers were in a panic now, and even the stewardesses
couldn't maintain order. Just then, standing tall and smiling
confidently, the pilot strode from the cockpit and assured
everyone that there was nothing to worry about. His words and
his demeanor seemed made most of the passengers feel better,
and they sat down as the pilot calmly walked to the door of
the aircraft. There, he grabbed several packages from under
the seats and began handing them to the flight attendants.

Each crew member attached the package to their backs.

"Say," spoke up an alert passenger, "aren't those parachutes?"

The pilot said they were.

The passenger went on, "But I thought you said there was nothing
to worry about?"

"There isn't," replied the pilot as a third engine exploded.
"We're going to get help."

Subj:     Airline Shuffle
          From: Ossama's Laugh on 1/31/98

During the "rush hour" at Houston's Hobby Airport, my flight
was delayed due to a mechanical problem. Since they needed
the gate for another flight, the aircraft was backed away
from the gate while the maintenance crew worked on it. We
were then told the new gate number, which was some distance
away.

Everyone moved to the new gate, only to find that a third
gate had been designated for us. After some further shuffling,
everyone got on board, and as we were settling in, the flight
attendant made the standard announcement,

"We apologize for the inconvenience of this last-minute gate
change. This flight is going to Washington, D.C. If your
destination is not Washington, D.C., then you should 'deplane'
at this time."

A very confused-looking and red-faced pilot emerged from the
cockpit, carrying his bags. "Sorry," he said, "wrong plane."

A true story.

     (Also see 'Man And Woman In Falling Elevator' in WOMEN1)

A passenger plane on a cross the country trip runs into a
terrible storm. The plane gets pounded by rain, hail, wind
and lightening. The passengers are screaming. They are
sure the plane is going to crash and they are all going to
die.

At the height of the storm, a young woman jumps up and
exclaims, "I can't take this anymore! I can't just sit
here and die like an animal, strapped into a chair. If I
am going to die, let me die feeling like a woman. Is there
anyone here man enough to make me feel like a woman?"

A man stands up in the rear of the plane. "I can make you
feel like a woman," he says. He's gorgeous. Tall, built,
with flowing black hair and jet black eyes, he starts to
walk slowly up the aisle, unbuttoning his shirt one button
at a time. No one moves. The woman is breathing heavily
in anticipation as the strange man approaches.

He removes his shirt. Muscles ripple across his chest as
he reaches her, and extends the arm holding his shirt to
the trembling woman, and whispers: "Iron this. Then get
me a beer."

Subj:     Pilot Speaks With Mike Open (S47)
          (Also see 'Sexist professor' in COLLEGE1)

A (supposedly) true story:

A friend of a guy in the Nutrition School at Tufts was one
of the lucky passengers onboard a Northwest Airlines flight
to Boston during our recent hurricane "Bob". The captain
did his best to skirt the edge of the storm, but it was a
pretty rough ride just the same - rough enough that the
flight attendants were ordered to strap themselves into
their seats for about half an hour, and many of the
passengers were putting the little plastic-lined bags in
their seat pockets to good use. When the turbulence
finally abated, the flight attendants unbuckled themselves,
and the captain's voice came on over the intercom.

"Well, folks, that was quite some ride, wasn't it?' But
we came through it fine, just the way we always do, and
I'm happy to report that it looks like the remainder of
our trip should be much calmer. On behalf of myself and
today's flight crew, I'd like to thank you very much for
your calmness and cooperation, and extend our best wishes
for a pleasant stay in Boston.

?after a short pause and several clicks>

"Jesus Christ - whadda bitchin' ride! Boy - I sure could
use a cup of good strong coffee and a blow job, right
about now"

As a stricken stewardess dashed up the aisle to the cabin
to inform the captain that his intercom was still on, one
of the passengers called after her, "Don't forget the coffee!

      and From: DoctorDebt on 12/11/2005

A jumbo jet is just coming into the Toronto Airport on
it's final approach. The pilot comes on the intercom,
"This is your Captain. We're on our final descent into
Toronto. I want to thank you for flying with us today
and I hope you enjoy your stay in Toronto".

He forgets to switch off the intercom. Now the whole
plane can hear his conversation from the cockpit. The
copilot says to the pilot, "Well, skipper, watcha gonna
do in Toronto?"

"Well," says the skipper, "first I'm gonna check into
the hotel and take a big crap..... then I'm gonna take
that new stewardess with the huge tits out for dinner.
I'm gonna wine and dine her, take her back to my room
and give her a ride on the baloney pony all night long."

Everyone on the plane hears this and immediately begins
looking up and down the isles trying to get a look at
the new stewardess. Meanwhile, she is at the very back
of the plane. She's so embarrassed that she starts to
run to try and get to the cockpit to turn the intercom off.

Halfway down the aisle, she trips over an old lady's bag
and down she goes. The old lady leans over and says: "No
need to hurry, dear. He's gotta take a shit first."

      and From: hellgunner50 on 10/10/2008
          (Also see 'UA Agent's Quick Wit' in FACTS2)

As reported by the San Jose Mercury News:

During the final days at Denver's old Stapleton airport,
a crowded United flight was cancelled. A single agent
was rebooking a long line of inconvenienced travelers.
Suddenly an angry passenger pushed his way to the desk.
He slapped his ticket down on the counter and said,
"I HAVE to be on this flight and it has to be first class."

The agent replied, "I'm sorry, sir. I'll be happy to try
to help you, but I've got to help these folks first, and
I'm sure we'll be able to work something out."

The passenger was unimpressed. He asked loudly, so that
the passengers behind him could hear, "Do you have any
idea who I am?"

Without hesitating, the gate agent smiled and grabbed
her public address microphone. "May I have your attention
please?" she began, her voice bellowing throughout the
terminal. "We have a passenger here at the gate WHO DOES
NOT KNOW WHO HE IS. If anyone can help him find his
identity, please come to the gate."

With the folks behind him in line laughing hysterically,
the man glared at the United agent, gritted his teeth
and swore, "F**k you."

Without flinching, she smiled and said, "I'm sorry, sir,
but you'll have to stand in line for that, too."

The man retreated as the people in the terminal applauded
loudly. Although the flight was cancelled and people were
late, they were no longer angry at United.

The son (who had been looking out the window) turned to his

have baby cats, why don't big planes have baby planes?"

The mother (who couldn't think of an answer) told her son
to ask the stewardess. So the boy asked the stewardess,
"If big dogs have baby dogs and big cats have baby cats,
why don't big planes have baby planes?"

The stewardess asked, "Did your mother tell you to ask me?"
He said that she had. So she said, "Tell your mother that
TWA always pulls out on time. Your mother can explain it

Subj:     Man Goes To Bathroom On A Plane (S229)
          From: pns on 6/18/2001

A man on a plane needed to go to the GENTS but every time he
went, there was someone else using it. After a while the
flight attendant noticed his predicament and suggested he
use the LADIES, but not to touch the buttons mounted on the
wall.

He went in, took his seat and looking around the cubicle, he
saw buttons marked thus:
                          COMFORT PANEL
                    (WW)                  (WA)
                          (PP)     (ATR)
After a while his curiosity got the better of him, so he
pressed (WW) and warm water washed his bottom. This was a
marvellous idea, so he pressed (WA) and warm air rushed out
and dried his bottom. Not to be outdone, he decided to
press (PP) and out came a powder puff and powdered his
bottom. He thought the ladies really had it made for them
so he pressed (ATR) and promptly passed out.

Waking up later in hospital, he asked the nurse what happened
and she said: "You pressed the (ATR) button, which means
Automatic Tampon Remover, your penis is under your pillow and
your balls are in the bucket under the bed!"

Subj:     Man Meets Lady Lecturer On Plane (S220b, S598)
          From: RFSlick on 2/20/2001
      and From: tom on 6/29/2008

A man boards an airplane and takes his seat. As he settles
in, he glances up and sees a very beautiful woman boarding
the plane. He soon realizes she is heading straight towards
his seat. Lo and behold, she takes the seat right beside
his. Eager to strike up a conversation, he blurts out,
"Business trip or vacation?"

She turns, smiles and says, "Business. I'm going to the
annual Nymphomaniac Convention in Chicago."

He swallows hard. Here is the most gorgeous woman he has
ever seen, sitting next to him and she's going to a meeting
of nymphomaniacs! Struggling to maintain his composure, he
calmly asks, "What's your business role at this convention?"

"Lecturer", she says, "I use my experience to debunk some
of the popular myths about sexuality."

"Really," he says, swallowing hard, "what myths are those?"

"Well," she explains, "one popular myth is that African-
American men are the most well endowed when, in fact, it's
the Native-American Indian who is most likely to possess
that trait. Another popular myth is that French men are
the best lovers, when actually it is the men of Jewish
descent. However, we have found that the best potential
lover in all categories is the Southern Redneck."

Suddenly, the woman becomes a little uncomfortable and
blushes. "I'm sorry," she says, "I shouldn't be discussing
this with you, I don't even know your name!"

"Tonto!", the man says, "Tonto Goldstein!....But my friends
call me 'Bubba.'"

Subj:     Man On Plane Sneezes (S311, S569c)
          From: KMACINTY on 5/16/2001
      and From: hellgunner50 on 12/12/2007

A man and a woman are sitting next to each other in an
airplane. All of a sudden, the man sneezes powerfully.
He takes out his handkerchief, opens his zipper, takes
out his willy and after having carefully wiped it, puts
it back in and closes his zipper.

The woman is shocked--but she thinks it wiser to not say
anything about it.

There is a second sneeze, as loud as the first one. The
same routine is followed: zipper open, willy out, wiping,
willy in, and zipper closed. The woman is almost sick
but she just tries to ignore the whole thing.

After the third sneeze (and the routine) she cannot help
but ask: "Excuse me, sir, but you have now sneezed three
times. And after each time you have taken out your penis
and wiped it. May I inquire why?"

"Oh--you see Ma'am, every time I sneeze I get an orgasm."

"But that's awful! Do you take anything for it?"

"Pepper," answered the man.

Subj:     Not Enough Parachutes (S156)
          From: Scott's Joke Archive on 5/31/97
      and From: octagon999 on 01/24/2000

One night, a Delta twin-engine puddle jumper was flying
somewhere above New Jersey. There were five people on
board: the pilot, Michael Jordan, Bill Gates, the Dali
Lama, and a hippie.

Suddenly, an illegal oxygen generator exploded loudly in
the luggage compartment, and the passenger cabin began
to fill with smoke. The cockpit door opened, and the
pilot burst into the compartment.

"Gentlemen," he began, "I have good news and bad news.
The bad news is that we're about to crash in New Jersey.
The good news is that there are four parachutes, and I
have one of them!" With that, the pilot threw open the
door and jumped from the plane.

Michael Jordan was on his feet in a flash. "Gentlemen,"
he said, "I am the world's greatest athlete. The world
needs great athletes. I think the world's greatest
athlete should have a parachute!" With these words, he
grabbed one of the remaining parachutes, and hurtled
through the door and into the night.

Bill Gates rose and said, "Gentlemen, I am the world's
smartest man. The world needs smart men. I think the
world's smartest man should have a parachute, too." He
grabbed one, and out he jumped.

The Dali Lama and the hippie looked at one another.
Finally, the Dali Lama spoke. "My son," he said, "I
have lived a satisfying life and have known the bliss
of True Enlightenment. You have your life ahead of you;
you take a parachute, and I will go down with the plane."

The hippie smiled slowly and said, "Hey, don't worry,
pop. The world's smartest man just jumped out wearing
my backpack."

Subj:     Doctor And Minister On A Plane
          From: humorlist-digest V1 #184 on 97-08-28

An elderly doctor and a Presbyterian minister were seated
next to each other on the plane. The plane was delayed at
the start due to some technical problems. Just after taking
off, the pilot offered his apologies to the passengers and
announced that a round of free drinks would be served.

When the charming air-hostess came round with the trolley,
the doctor ordered a gin and tonic for himself. The hostess
then asked the minister whether he wanted anything. He
replied, "Oh no, thank you. I would rather commit adultery
than drink alcohol".

The elderly doctor promptly handed back his gin and tonic to
the air-hostess said, "Madam, I did not know there was a
choice."

Subj:     Did We Land Or Were We Shot Down?
          From: Octagon999 on 97-12-23

An airline pilot wrote that on this particular flight he had
hammered his ship into the runway really hard. The airline
had a policy, which required the first officer to stand at
the door while the passengers exited, give a smile, and a
"Thanks for flying XYZ airline." He said that in light of
his bad landing, he had a hard time looking the passengers
in the eye, thinking that someone would have a smart comment,
but no one seemed annoyed. Finally everyone had gotten off
except for one little old lady walking with a cane. She
approached and asked, comspiratorially, "Sonny, mind if I
ask you a question?" "Why no Ma'am, what is it?" "Did we land
or were we shot down?"

This nine second video is amazing. My military expert,
Gilbert, explained to me that this picture was NOT amazing.
He said "It's a sub missile launch with a jet picture super
imposed over the missile. Sorry I got taken by another
internet fake.
