I heard the following around my home airport:
Cessna 1234M: “Cessna N1234M, four miles northeast for landing with Echo. Full stop.”
Tower: “34M turn right base. Cleared to land 25R.”
A few moments later as the Cessna was on short final:
Tower: “34M, be aware tractor mowing between 25R and 25L.”
Cessna 1234M: “Roger. Too close for missiles. Switching to guns.”

Great response by the pilot with a sense of humor. Guns on a real US fighter would be the M61A1 Vulcan. Just give the tractor the low burst of 3,000 rounds per minute.
The recoil would probably knock the Cessna out of the sky . . .
Hilarious!
HaHa! A Vulcan cannon wold put it over max takeoff weight!
