(Two company DH8’s on final into Saskatoon, Saskatchewan.)
Controller: CO1234, your traffic is company DH8, at your 11 o’clock, 3,000.
CO1234: Roger Saskatoon, have company DH8 in sight, too close for missiles, going to guns.
Controller: Roger … please avoid hitting tower.
Short Final…
Key Takeaways:
- A pilot, spotting another company aircraft in close proximity, humorously remarked about it being "too close for missiles, going to guns."
- The air traffic controller played along with the joke, humorously requesting the pilot "please avoid hitting tower."
