Frankfurt tower personnel are apparently well known for their impatient and somewhat unfriendly manner when dealing with pilots. One day the following conversation occurred:
BA 747 (Speedbird 206): "Good morning Frankfurt, Speedbird 206 clear to active."
Ground: "Good Morning. Taxi to your gate."
The British Airways 747 pulls onto the main taxiway and stops.
Ground: "Speedbird, do you know where you are going?
Speedbird 206: "Stand by, ground. I'm looking up the gate location now."
Ground (impatiently): "Speedbird 206, have you never flown to Frankfurt before?"
Speedbird 206 (coolly): "Yes, in 1944. But I didn't stop......"
