RADIOS???? WE DONT NEED NO STINKIN RADIOS!!! You mean to tell me that you couldnt see that big bright ass yellow aircraft until you got on SHORT FINAL?? GREAT CEASAR'S GHOST BATMAN, WHAT IS THE WORLD COMING TO!
Nah, I'm just givin' you sh!t, man. I actually agree with you on the radio call bit. Most of the strips I've worked off of were either grass or dirt private strips, or very rarely used uncontrolled fields. Been on a few gravel section line roads in there as well. But, the times we did work off an airport that had quite a bit of traffic, I did at least use my handheld and call my traffic. But, for the most part, I worry more about the weekend flyers out there with the Cubs and Aeroncas and other antique aircraft, with no radios. I've had closer calls with guys like that than I've EVER had with an ag aircraft.
