Don't you hate it when you forget where you left your Boeing 747-200F?

It wasn’t until I bought my first 747 that I realized just how many other folks owned 747s. Kinda took away the thrill.

Hey Hello Howard, how ya doin'? "Next door neighbour?" "Oh yeah... Get your f***in' jumbo jet off my airport

Did anybody think that maybe these jets belong to a certain terrorist group just training a crew to crash the planes. Into a building or two.

That was my first thought, but I’m guilty of racial profiling.
