I almost got Unsat'd on a checkride once for using "with you." I did learn to fly at a small flight school in Daytona that rhymes with Embry-Riddle. Therefore, I don't use "with you" ever.

My only pet peeve is "On the hold." I don't even know what that means. I know it loosely translates to "position and hold," but its just a jumble of words. Just say, "position and hold."


Good point. Everytime I hear that "on the hold" stuff it sort of reminds me of the verbiage that helped the KLM and Pan Am 747s smack together in the fog back in 1977. Yet, as you pointed out, you still hear that one all the time.

I suppose the next thing we will get to listen to on the radio will be you saying "dude." As I have told the old guys that have been retired for a while from the business: If you want to know how bad the industry has become, get a scanner and listen to ATC for a while. That will tell you all you need to know.

I'm sure you've been flying SOOOOO much longer than I have. :rolleyes: Has anybody ever told you how cool you are? I'm sure you hear it from everybody you fly with.

Don't like the way I talk? Get over it. I'm sure we'll never fly together....and, if we did, and you are the same in person as you are over the internet....you'd be on my no fly list pretty quick.

Have a nice day, Captain Perfection.

I thought I remember something about ATC not being able to assign a speed less than 210Kts more than 20NM from the airport or less than 170Kts within 20NM (turbojet). If a pilot asks what they need, that might be a way to give ATC the speed they need you at but can't assign.
-------------------------------------------------------

Nice thought but I was referring to flight levels.

----------------------------------------------
I will also add "here we go..." to the list.
---------------------------------------------

Oh yeah...one of the lamest. Can you imagine if everyone said that at the end of their clearances?

---------------------------------------
.....three three oh.
----------------------------------------

Reminds me...what's the deal with the "oh's"? It's "zero". Try flying in some other parts of the world and use "oh" instead of zero and you might get an earful.

Ok boys, while we're at it....how do you feel about responding to "cleared for take-off" with "on the roll" or worse yet, "on the go" instead of "cleared for take-off"? (and it might be nice to include the runway if multiple runways are in use).

I have been flying for over 30 years and I find pilot radio phraseology has gone down the tubes in that time. You would NEVER find anyone saying "on the roll" 30 years ago.

Harsh dude. Totally.

"...and, Chi-town center Cardinal's 243 checkin with you at three-two-oh"
 
Captain 7, I bet you are fun to fly with. How many FO's have you scolded in the last month on the way they talk on the radio? I bet they are falling all over themselves just to get back on a trip with you. BTW, this is one of the most useless...never mind.

Well then I guess we won't have to worry about sharing a flight deck with you much longer huh? oh, sorry..."cockpit" for you. BTW you still call the FA's "stews"?

I think "yabba dabba doo" would suffice.

Or what about something like...

Geronimo?

Hot damm, here we go again!

Jesus, I thought for sure there was going to be a breathalyzer today!

Alah Akbar!

Go Wee hawks! (or whatever it was that Rodger at Chicago center used to say!"

Sporting Wood on 7 left!

I'm not completely sure, but I believe "on the hold" is military phraseology.
 
---------------------------------
With 21,000hrs you might be spending a little too much time in the cockpit.
---------------------------------

I don't think so. It's only an average of 700 hours/year.

---------------------------------
How about captain 7 is a pole smoker would that be ok to say?!!
---------------------------------

To answer your question - I don't think so. You probably would get some sort of letter from FAA/ATC. Your response tells me that you are probably a "with you", "on the roll", "here we go" type guy and resent my post.
