The dreaded seven-engine approach

Military Aviation Humor | Civil Aviation Humor | Life in the Military | Submit a Joke

A reader wrote us, retelling the story about the military pilot calling ATC for a priority landing because his single-engine jet fighter was running "a bit peaked." ATC told the fighter jock that he was number two behind a B-52 that had one shut down.

"Ah," the pilot remarked, "the dreaded seven-engine approach!"
