>Santa Claus, like all pilots, gets regular visits from the Federal
>Aviation
>Administration, and it was shortly before Christmas when the FAA
>examiner arrived.
>
>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.
>
>The examiner walks slowly around the sled. He checks the reindeer
>harnesses, the landing gear, and Rudolf's nose. He painstakingly
>reviews Santa's weight-and-balance calcula-tions for the 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, but
>you're going to lose an engine on takeoff."
