Short Final

I heard this going into Los Angeles International Airport on SoCal approach frequency: Approach:“Airliner 123, turn right, heading 180, for spacing.” Airliner 123:“Right turn, 180. Airliner 123. What’s up?” Approach:“Well, our computers have the ability to suggest a specific vector to help us get the required spacing. So the computer says you gotta go south for a while.” Airliner 123:“Oh. Well, our computer says that direct to the airport for the visual will work.” Approach (laughing) :“Yeah, but my computer trumps your computer.” Frank Bowlinvia e-mail
