It's that time of year.....
Santa had his reindeer ready on Christmas Eve as he surveyed his over-loaded sleigh. He looks over and he sees a fellow in a suit strolling up..... Turns out to be an FAA inspector.
"Santa, I gotta take you up for a check ride," the inspector says.
"But why tonight? Can't you come back next week? This is a busy night for me you know!," replies Santa.
"Sorry, your name came up and now's the time. Spool up them reindeer and let's get going...." responds the inspector.
Santa finishes hitching up the reindeer, taxis onto the runway apron, and just as he's going through the pre-take off checklist he looks over and notices a high powered rifle sticking out of the inspector's flight bag.
"Hey!" Santa yells. "What's the that for!?"
"Well, Santa, I'm not supposed to tell you this, but you might be losing one on takeoff...."
