Poland's worst helicopter air disaster occurred today when a Jet Ranger
crashed into a large cemetery early this morning as the Ranger was on traffic
patrol. Polish aviation authorities fear the death toll is likely
to climb past the 326 bodies discovered so far as the search and rescue
workers continue digging.

My "Stick Buddy" was a Medical Service Corps Lieutenant who was having a little trouble getting the hang of things. During one post flight debriefing on the ground the IP filled out a pink (unsatisfactory), grade slip on my Stick Buddy and handed it to him in my presence.
The Instructor asked the Lieutenant if he had any questions.
My Stick Buddy looked over the grade slip for a moment and then in a quite sarcastic tone of voice asked our IP. "Now, where you have checked "Attitude" as unsatisfactory, is that in referring to my attitude or my ability to control the attitude of the helicopter"?

Over and Out ............
True funny story, similar to one of yours:
I got my private some years ago at Longmont CO with Larry M. There was an outfit on the field putting air conditioning in bizplanes. After a lesson we wound up sitting in the office of a Commander talking.
I said:
"Larry, how come there's no air conditioning vents up here? Don't they care about the pilots?"
Larry said:
"It's those two big fans out on the wings keep the pilots cool, and if you don't believe it you watch 'im sweat when one of 'em stops."
A student helicopter pilot was taking his first lesson. At a point near the end of the first lesson the flight instructer decided to see if the new student had any knowledge of helicopter aerodynamics.
Instructor says to Student:
The spinning blades on top of the helicopter, do you know what it's
exact pourpous is for?
Student reply:
Yeah, the new pilot to-be confidently sounds out......It's a fan........
Instructor's horrified reply:
No it's not a fan, the seasoned flight instructor mouth's into the
mike;and adds to silently to him self "you dumbo"!
Student reply:
I bet you'll start swetting big time if I turn it OFF....................
A high-pitched, obviously youthful voice suddenly came over the public
address system in a Boeing 747 passenger jet. "Hi, my name is Tommy, my
daddy is letting me fly.....
Then a sudden loud woshing sound filled the cabin of the 747 via the
craft's loud speaker system.
The young voice sounding quite surprised bellows out "I did'nt know 747s have ejection seats, daddy, wait for me"..... Another woshing sound was heard fllowed by the PA system going quiet?
During a long flight, a 757 driver casually asks his co-pilot,
Do you know what the big difference between the rear aircrew (flight
attendants)
and the engines is?
The second officer asnwers back to his superior, "I don't know, to me they are not much alike at all.
The captain says to his underling, "It's simple son, the engines stop whining after we land!"
PILOT: Oshkosh tower could you please give me a time check?
TOWER: Please identify yourself.
PILOT: What difference does it make. I only want a time check!
TOWER: It makes a BIG difference.
