Republic Air 4650 Information Echo joke at KBTV

[ashawley]

Hadn't heard this one before.   I heard it live on the Burlington approach frequency. Unfortunately, the LiveATC recording archive of this occasionally cuts out during transmissions.  There was communication on the Ground frequency around the same time but it might be just poor timing by the scanner.  Oh well.  Usually, the feed is pretty spot on.

"And vectors for 15, Brickyard 4650"

And... what they say next?

Heading 360 and vectors for 15, Brickyard 4650.  You didn't like my joke?

No, I liked it actually, it's pretty good actually.

I've been waiting all day for an echo.

I might use it next time, too.

It's all yours.

Thanks.
