Forgive me if there is a joke thread already.
But here is an oldie for the season.
Santa Claus, like all pilots, gets regular visits from the
Federal Aviation Administration, and the FAA examiner
arrived last week for the pre-Christmas flight check.
In preparation, Santa had the elves wash the sled and
bathe all the reindeer. Santa got his logbook out and made
sure all his paperwork was in order. He knew they would examine
all his equipment and truly put his flying skills to the test.
The examiner walked slowly around the sled. He checked
the reindeer harnesses, the landing gear, and Rudolf's nose.
He painstakingly reviewed Santa's weight and balance
calculations for sled's enormous payload.
Finally, they were ready for the check ride. Santa got in
and fastened his seat belt and shoulder harness and
checked the compass. Then the examiner hopped in
carrying, to Santa's surprise, a shotgun.
"What's that for?!?" asked Santa incredulously.
The examiner winked and said, "I'm not supposed to tell
you this ahead of time," as he leaned over to whisper in
Santa's ear, "but you're gonna lose an engine on takeoff."
