NY Center:
“Jetsetter 123, got time for a quick question?”
JS123:
“Sure.”
NYC:
“What’s the service ceiling on that bird?”
JS123:
“FL 510.”
[A moment of silence followed.]
Then someone asked:
“Does that thing come with astronaut wings?”
XY456:
“Hey Center, what type of aircraft were you talking to?”
NYC:
“He’s a G6.”
Some other regional jet driver then chimed in:
“Man, I can’t even afford a Pontiac G6.”
NYC had to apologize to Air Canada:
“Sorry, guys. I was laughing so hard I missed you checking in.”
