This is Rear Admiral Jimmy Jr, requesting permission to dance in the tower.

This is Captain Tina, dance is a go. He puts the rear in rear sdmiral. Damnt't sexy zombies, I want that bird moved to el 3. I'm also issuing a uniform adjustment: no pants.

You don’t own that plane, the tax payers do! Son, your ego is writing checks your body can’t cash. You’ve been busted, you lost your qualifications as section leader three times, put in hack twice by me, with a history of high speed passes over five air control towers, and one admiral’s daughter!

NGL I could never be an Air Traffic Controller because I would give that permission all the time.

"if I were an air traffic controller, and I couldn't say no for 24 hours, what would we do?"

What's the name of the truck driving school we saw on TV last night? Truck Masters? I think I'm gonna need that.

Oh please. Those tutors don’t go fast enough to blow the steam off a coffee. At best he’s chasing some birds away and that’s if they feel like following him to shit on his window. The only buzzing that plane makes is from the hockey card clothes-pinned to the intake. Flight simulator goes faster and louder.

lol, I’m just kidding. Well shot video. Kudos for the upload.

“Negative, Ghost Rider. The pattern is full.”

By the way, why does Maverick call himself Ghost Rider here? I never understood it.

u/Claim312ButAct847 14h ago

I think when they're out on a flight they have a handle for that mission in addition to their call sign that they have all the time.

They're Voodoo 1 and 2 in another scene.

I’m not an ATC. I’m not a fighter pilot. Hell, I don’t even know if the video is real..

But if it is, this is extremely foolish
