Aeronautical Pet Peeves

[Flyingdutchman]

pilots who bitch about other pilots all the time...

 

[Flyingdutchman]

pilots who only talk about flying during a 4 day trip.

 

[dash8driver]

anal pilots that get upset at the little things...

Nothing wrong with "with you". Instructor says it all the time...

...exactly

Adding an "s" to the end of your airline name. i.e. "United's 342" or "Delta's 177"

I also like to second the "with you" when checking in.

Also people who say "this is Cessna 1234X"

 

[sky37d]

CFI's who do not know how to instruct, and forgot they were students once.

No, this is incorrect. You will NOT find the term "with you" anywhere in the Controller Glossary. It makes you sound like a douche bag.

I get annoyed when I hear some guy pick up his IFR clearance at a very small class D airport, then ask for a progressive. It is especially disturbing when there is one taxiway to reach the active runway.

What Leadsled said. Especially pilots who KNOW that they are incompetent and refuse to take steps to fix it...and pilots that talk and don't listen to the radio- they call out "any traffic, please advise" even when we have just called out our positions...rather annoying.

The people that are doing approaches at slow speed aren't causing accidents- but the pilots that are unsafe are

I guess you could say that my biggest pet peeve is unsafe people.

Well, sometimes it's helpful to know that if I break out my sandwich, chips and soda, they won't end up in pieces scattered all over the cockpit 20 miles down the line. (j/k)

AAAAhhh! It's You !!!!!!!!!!!!

Who do you fly for that pays you enough to afford chips and soda ? They hiring ?

LOL.
