My brother's first email from THERE!!!!!




hi gorb, how r u ?.

i am writing from my school so i'll keep it short. readthese funny radio calls we have had:



Tower: "Delta 351, you have traffic at 10 o'clock, 6 miles!"Delta 351: "Give us another hint! We have digital watches!"



"TWA 2341, for noise abatement turn right 45 Degrees.""Centre, we are at 35,000 feet. How much noise can we make up here?""Sir, have you ever heard the noise a 747 makes when it hits a 727?"




From an unknown aircraft waiting in a very long takeoff queue: "I'm****** bored!"Ground Traffic Control: "Last aircraft transmitting, identify yourself immediately!"Unknown aircraft: "I said I was ******* bored, not ******* stupid!"




One day the pilot of a Cherokee 180 was told by the tower to holdshort of the active runway while a DC-8 landed. The DC-8 landed,rolled out, turned around, and taxied back past the Cherokee. Somequick-witted comedian in the DC-8 crew got on the radio and said,"What a cute little plane. Did you make it all by yourself?" TheCherokee pilot, not about to let the insult go by, came back with a real zinger: "I made it out of DC-8 parts. Another landing like yoursand I'll have enough for another one.".also listen to this song if possible i heard it on the radio anddownloaded it. i am sending it as an attatchment. oh and don't forget the pic.
reply ASAP
with lots of love, TD

I'm really missing bro these days.... frequent phone-calls keep me updated with all the stuff he's been up to.
But sometimes I get really frustrated hearing what all he's having everyday.
The other day he said that he had Dinner in a sushi restaurant....and since then has no place for sea-food in his stomach.
Bro also had steak and tried some very delicious italian food.
....that's the second reason im very jealous of him.
Is that fair??? ur brother having all sorts of assorted foods and you can just listen and drool over the phone.

Dreams of Steel

Dreams of steel and will of steel in a gentle glove..................thats our son, the aspiring pilot.!!!!
Took him two years but he managed it. Managed to convert us, his parents, to his dream of flying high in the clouds as a pilot. His dream career.
Gently but firmly he always did as we wanted him to do. Or so we thought. Gently but firmly he guided us to his way of thinking till we were telling the world that our son will be a pilot!!!!!And now he is in his flying school and has already logged in 13.3 flying hours.

Today I got the very first letter my brother sent me from his aviation academy.
He also sent along some photos with his witty comments written on the back.
I also enjoyed reading my B'Day card which i received 12 days after my B'day, but it was fun being reminded that I've now become a teenager!!!!
Well, I miss him very much but I'm happy that his dream of flyin through the clouds is coming true.
The best photos were the ones in which he was in a Tampico aircraft with his cool black goggles, the headset and the controls of the plane......
Wow...what a life, you spend most of your day flying high !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
