A Democrat, a Republican, and a Communist are traveling on board a private aircraft when the pilot suddenly suffers a heart attack and dies. None of the men have any pilot training, and only one parachute is on board.

The Democrat turns to the other two men and says, "We should elect one of us to pilot the plane. That way, we might all survive."

The Republican replies, "No, one of us should be chosen by popular vote to take the parachute. Then we know one of us will survive."

The Communist slices the parachute up into three equal pieces and hands a piece to each person. He cheerfully explains, "Now none of us will survive, but we will all be equally happy!"

Good one - though I would have jumped by the time the western crackheads finished their darn speeches.

Yes, I know that was lame

I already know this joke, but this is still a good one.

Planes aren't really all that hard to fly, it's the takeoffs and landings that are crap.

takeoffs and landings are no more difficult to a pilot than backing your car out of the driveway is to the rest of us. its a mater of practice. of course phucking up will render you dead.

Except on in blasting storm with different crosswinds on each meter to the ground and fog covering the whole are so you can't see beyond your nose....

...eh...just had some darn hard experience in LOMAC trying to land my Su-27 in said conditions.
I finally managed to master visual landings - more or less ~90% sucessful landings on ground - but pure instrument landing is still beyond me.

...add the storm and start praying to pull the chute's lever in time...
