Here is a joke that I read in a cartoon in Air Force magazine a while back.
I can only paraphrase and the animation is helpful too, but:
Lt. Green was out on his first solo flight in a T-38 and was feeling a bit
cocky. He decided to see what ballistic flight was like and pulled the
jet into a vertical climb. After a few seconds he got a call from the tower
as follows, "Ghost 53Z, tower. Say heading," to which the pilot responded
"Uh, up, sir."
