    New airline pilots on the radio

    After waiting in line for 5 to 10 minutes. Me - "Brickyard 4320 Runway 28R @ MM line up and wait." Them- "Um tower, brickyard 4320 we arent ready, we've got to start our other engine" ......What exactly did you think was going to happen when you were number 1 at the runway?

    Unnecessary verbage

    Well, you are correct with the read back of a hold short but a line up wait no problem with just a call sign. Hold shorts and headings is all I really care about. On the final I see you on my radar and doubt you want the option. Don't care if your on a visual or an ILS because the end result...

    Unnecessary verbage

    I get this AAL MD80 pilot who is by far my favorite pilot in the world because this is how he checks in with me on TWR freq. "American 1485." Thats it! Love it. Guess what guys and gals, I know where you are, I know what you are doing, and I know what you want to do which is land your jet...

    posting/updating pireps

    Was it as bumpy as the flight we did into KBZN during the fires :-) Not speaking for the controllers you are talking about but If I get a PIREP from a pilot I fill out the form and hand it to my Sup. Whether or not it actually gets called in is another story. I don't know if the center guys...

    "Verify you have ATIS..."

    Hence why these days if a plane comes on freq. in an emergency situation we are conditioned to give them wind and altimeter on initial call. We don't even have to think about it anymore.

    "Verify you have ATIS..."

    hahaha yeah, we can't handle non-conventional activity. I can assure you this wasn't me. You need to do a cross bleed fine, T10, no problem, hold short of A9 and let me know when your done. Did you tell metering or did you tell ground. Metering can sometimes forget to pass along all of your...

    "Verify you have ATIS..."

    That's up to the airport authority whether or not you can start up at the gate. Controllers could care less. We have no control over this. I get requests a lot for X-bleed starts on the taxi way and the only reason I care about the request is because the aircraft has to stop. Not something I...

    United Airlines policy

    This may be more appropriate in another section but no one ever seems to check them so do any of you United drivers and or someone who flies on United know the answer to my question? The 1800# was of no use! Going to Maui next week and on the return flight from OGG to HNL my wife and I have a...

    CAL DEN and ORD bases???

    I think it would be smart to move some of the airbus flying to IAH. I think the Airbus can carry a container. That would be a plus on the South America flying.

    AirTran, Frontier to battle it out for Chicago-Cancun rights

    No I've been here forever it seems. 2002 probably. God I feel old.

    AirTran, Frontier to battle it out for Chicago-Cancun rights

    Do some homework before you make a comment. I'm a controller at ORD and F9 has been flying into ORD for about a month now.

    Gulfstream loses lawsuit filed by former Captain

    That video is funny. Was that a screw up putting a picture of a COPA 737 in thinking it was a Continental or do they work with COPA some how?

    What is with DTW clearances?

    I don't know the relevance here but us controllers don't send the PDC to your plane. Its automatic.
