There's a story about the military pilot calling for a priority landing because his single-engine jet fighter was running "a bit low on fuel."

Air Traffic Control told the fighter jock that he was number two behind a B-52 that had one engine shut down.

"Ah", the pilot remarked sarcastically, "the dreaded seven-engine approach".
