Delta's, Comair's, Chautauqua's...

[MAX ZORIN]

Sorry, this is not yet a CHQ bashing thread. My question is, who started saying "Delta's flight xx" and "Chautauqua's flight xxxx" on the radio? Lately I've been hearing it more and more and the controllers are starting to say it too. Is this similar to starting every transmission with the word "And..." where people dont realize that there doing it, or is it a conscious effort to sound cool?

Who gives a flying fart. There are a lot of people on the radio that sound like morons... The thing that bothers me the most is the people flying for US carriers that cant even speak english.

Fly into Mexico and you'll know what it's like to deal with people who can't speak English. Those of you who have know this isn't a joke.

This is nothing new, I've heard this lots of times from all kinds over the years.

The "and..." bugs me too, but nevertheless, I still find myself doing it occasionally and I kick myself each time.

You mean someone other than that one chick with MEX center says that?
