Virgins

Virgin Atlantic is worse than any student pilot i've ever heard. Instead of "Patomic Approach, XYZ 5248 checking in at 9000 with zulu," they say "Patomic Approach, Virgin 12 Heavy checking in at 10,000 feet on QNH 30.14, we are an Airbus A-340-600, heading 190, Speed at 230 knots for Visual 1R request 1L with Zulu, say current QNH please?" Gosh, the transmisions with them just never end with them sometimes.
 
"ABC tower, Cessna 123 estimating 10 miles Northeast of the field at four thousand five hundred feet with information alpha. Requesting permission to make a touch and go and then depart to the Northeast for XYZ airport at three thousand five hundred feet. Requesting flight following".

From a controller to a pilot :
"ABC Tower, Cessna 123 10 miles northeast 4,500 with information alpha request touch and go departure to the Northeast."
