Canteen Jokes of the Day:

----------- Damn Fokkers! --------------

A reporter was interviewing an old Scandinavian fighter pilot, asking him how it was in the war.

"Vell," said the old guy, "vee used to fly up dere and dogfight dem Krauts. One day we got in big trouble, we was surrounded by a bunch of dem Fokkers, they was to the right of us, they was to the left of us, but vee stayed there and vee got dem all. Ya, vee shoot dem German Fokkers outta da sky."

"Uh, excuse me for a moment" interrupted the reporter. "For the benefit of our viewers," "I guess I should explain that the term 'Fokker' refers to the name a specific German manufacturer that built the formidable Fokker fighter aircraft for the German Luftwaffe."

"Vell ya," said the old Scandianvian pilot, "that all may be true, but these fokkers was flying Messerschmitt's."

----------- Question ------------------

Upon landing hard, the pilot gets on the PA system, "Sorry folks for the hard landing. It wasn't the pilot's fault, and it wasn't the plane's fault. It was the asphalt." The airline pilot wrote that on this particular flight he had hammered his ship into the runway really hard.

The airline had a policy which required the first officer to stand at the door while all the passengers exited, give a smile, and a "Thanks for flying XYZ airline."

He said that in light of his bad landing, he had a hard time looking the passengers in the eye, thinking that someone would have a smart comment.

Finally, everyone had exited except for this little old lady walking slowly up the plane with a cane. She stopped at the door and asked, "Sonny, mind if I ask you a question?" "Why no M'am," said the pilot, "what is it?" The little old lady said, "Did we land or were we shot down?"
