Head in the Clouds, Echo
I was looking for a specific air traffic control clip (more on that later), but I randomly found this clip of KJFK Ground Control.
It's kinda long (12 minutes), but it's got tons of great lines; highly amusing.
Upon hearing it, a friend said the New York accent makes it all the better.
There are a couple of points in the clip where I just expected him to blurt out: "I can't f@#*(! make my mind work...," ala Winnebago Man.
"We'll visit you in the duty free..."1
Definitely recommended.

That's great. :)
Thanks again for the Winnebago Man clip back then...'tis greatly appreciated from this [NY1] sysadmin. :D
Some days...
1But without the accent.
(And sorry for the partial lameness on addr, but it's a sierra-foxtrot-whiskey matter.)

Re 1), they do have the same focus on whiskey, at least.
Sadly, I didn't get all of it, but it's sure hilarious. And scary.
