I heard this from my brother, who is a Search and Rescue pilot at Canadian
Forces Base Bagotville, Quebec. It's an apocryphal story that allegedly
happened late one night during bad weather, as heard over the tower radio:

Helicopter Pilot: "Roger, I'm holding at 3000 over beacon".

Second voice: "NO!  You can't be doing that!  I'm holding at 3000
	      over that beacon!"

(Brief pause, then first voice again):
		"You idiot, you're my co-pilot."
