Answer: You end up doing all the work and the fat guy in the suit gets all the credit. If the F.A.A. had to check Santa Like all people who are involved in flying vehicles through the sky, Santa has to have a pilot's license. That means regular visits by examiners from the FAA. Well, shortly before the Christmas in question, an examiner turned up from the FAA to test Santas' skills as a pilot and check out his sled. Santa had made sure his paperwork was in order, given his sled a good cleaning and made sure the reindeer were in good shape and was quite confident that he would pass the examination okay, as he always had before. The examiner looked through all the paperwork and had no problems with that. He walked slowly around the sled, kicking the runners as he went along. He checked the harnesses, checked the reindeer's feet, did some power/weight ratio calculations and generally gave the impression that he was happy with everything. Then came the pilot evaluation. Santa climbed into the sled, fastened his seat harness, checked the gauge panel and said a few encouraging words to the reindeer. Then the examiner climbed onboard and Santa was astonished to see that he was carrying a shotgun. "What are you going to do with that?" said Santa, with more than a little concern. The examiner gave him a little nudge and said "Look here, I shouldn't really be telling you this, but your going to lose an engine on take-off." Awards
