Huh? That is something else. Never heard of anything like it. It should have been "Don't confuse Runway 15 with the others, it is the one with the Big 15 painted on it" haha.NickDBrennan said:When I flew into Santa Fe on Saturday, the ATIS had a kind of funny message on it. Something to the effect of:
"Visual Approach, Runway 15 in use. Runway 15 is the big runway that is brown. Do not confuse it with our two black runways. They are not 15. 15 is brown, you can't miss it. Advise on initial contact you have information tango."
Has anyone else heard anything funny like that on an ATIS?
RogerT said:Maybe they should paint them and try that at KLNK. People
keep landing on taxiway Alpha instead of the runway next to
it. They've tried everything else .. including constant reminders
on ATIS.
There was a very funny one making the web rounds last year- the mechanized voice saying "MSP airport information Bravo. Tower closed. Do not attempt to land here. Winds 330 at 56 G 70. Heavy Rain. Dogs and Cats. Don't be stupid..."Let'sgoflying! said:is there no way to upload an mp3?

"Saginaw Tower Information Juuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuliet...advise the controller you have Juuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuliet."
And of course, everyone calling up says they have Juuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuliet.

Another one I didn't get completely but went along the lines of "wind 020 at 45 gust 79 please think first before untying the ropes everyone"
I have one, but it is a wav file and won't upload. Too bad.wbarnhill said:...advise controller on initial contact that you're insane.
I'd love to hear mp3s of these...

Edit by Greebo: The attached file is extremely funny but is not work friendly nor suitable for young ears. Please listen with care or use headphones. And don't be drinking anything when you click...
Ok that is EXTREMELY funny but -- not work friendly and not suitable for listening to near impressionable children.Let'sgoflying! said:here ya go
fgcason said:The intent was blatantly obvious from their tone of voice. I meant I didn't get the exact wording on it when I wrote it down hours later.
rsleeds said:The controllers in the contract tower at College Station, TX (CLL) do various flavors of this on a regular basis. It's my understanding they work exceptionally long shifts (sometimes the full tower day), so I guess this is their way of putting a little pep in a not so busy day.
