You are not cool!!

[ultrarunner]

I am so sick and tired of hearing pilots (seems to be mostly female for some reason, but I am sure guys do it too) checking in with the approach controller or ground prior to taxi and reporting,

"Ground, Lear 123XY, Signature, ready to taxi and we have [insert pause to get cool voice prepped] Paa-Pahhhhhhhh".

My God that is so gay. IT's PAPA, NOT Paa-Pahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

"Ahhhhh, Approach, Lear 123XY WITH YOU five for three, got 'er set up for the right side of niner, she's squawk-n' 0665, talk-n' 26.45, smooth, lookin-n' for the short-cut to the marker, oh, and by the way, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh, we have [insert pause to get cool voice prepped] Paa-Pahhhhhhhhhhhhh"

Am I the only one who hears the crap? Do you Paa-Pahhhhhhhhhhhh lovers really think that is cool? It really isn't.

Oh Hawker, give the little chickies and hair gel guys a break. Remember, they were flight instructors a month or so ago, and having just learned all this new lingo, they just can't help themselves...

They'll get with the program soon enough.

I have been waiting on Flight Express "Five and a Quarter" to grow up for quite some time. He is the only one in Atlanta airspace that thinks he sounds cool.....in his 210............Nails on a chalk board.

In all fairness, "5 and a quarter" is pretty gay. I would ask a Quarter of what?

Should it be Flight Express 6.25 (Quarter of 5)
Should it be Flight Express 5.25 (Quarter of 100)
Should it be Flight Express 5.15 (Quarter of an hour)

This topic needs it's own thread in the airline forums.

I grew up on Long Island, and was taught to speak with an eloquent dialect of english that only those from the north-east United States posess. So, having said that, when you hear me on the radio and I say "I have information Lima", its going to come out of my mouth as "Leemer". I've tried to say Lima, for some reason it just doesn't work all of the time.

I'll tell you what, lets make a deal F/O. Don't hate me for the way I butcher the phonetical alphebet, and I won't hate you for being a whiny, nit-picking, gear bitch.

btw, there is nothing wrong with including the words "Flight Level" in radio transmissions. It is the recomended radio phraseology in the AIM...

Now, lets all get another cup of coffee, and relax.

Although the difference between a yankee and a jackass is slight (striking resemblance, though), it is excusable for a yankee, since they were not raised to know the difference.

Hey Nugget,

Play nice, I've walked your picket line.

Keep up the good fight.

Not bad as the zero to hero kids at the regional airlines checking in " Air Shuttle 7336 with you at F-l-i-g-h-t L-e-v-e-l 350!" Wow the most be proud they went from a 152 to a shiny jet! lol

Seems like, somewhere in your basic training on small SE piston, you forgot to read FAR/AIM. It's NEVER too late to learn, ya know.

Gear Bitch,

Quit your whining. Go get information Pah-pahhhhhhhh and STFU, Super Pilot.

Geez, everyone knows it's "POPPP-pah"

"I love it when you call me 'Big Pa-PAH'" just doesn't work.

And the "Goulet" version that starts at 1:50

[CopilotDoug]

Me as well!



edit: btw, who the he11 is sugar pop? heard this reply with atl the other day. Don't get cutesy with your call sign unless your ARE the bear from the cereal!

I think these are the same guys who frequent the term 'Tally Ho' when changing freq's. Heard somebody use "Triple-Nickle" on the radio (Callsign N555--)

I personally do not get it. It's as if you have to go out of your way to use non-standard phraseology. But for what? To attract attention to yourself? It doesn't upset me...but why?

HAHAHAHA. WOW, still bitter after the lose huh??

 

[JJET44]

This is almost as annoying as USAirways Guys checking on as "USAir's xxx" like their own by USAirways and not actually USAirways.

The other thing is guys signing off a frequency with SEEEYAA! Grow the F-up, your not in high school anymore.

What a bunch of whining crybabies here!!!!!

OMG, he said it that way?? What and a-hole. Why are you people so worried about others phraseology?? If it annoys you so much, buy a piper cub and go putz around without radios.

Ain't the life of a corporate pilot great? I get paid to play golf and sit around on my computer (that my company gave me) and annoy you!!!

 

[stupidpilot]

I am cool! I am way cool! Too cool for you bro! No, wait. I forgot again, my wife had to remind me what a dork I am.

Dude...the fact that you think you "annoy" me, just shows that ya think way too highly of yourself. With all the other crap going on in the world of aviation and the world at large...I'd just think ya might let how somebody checks on or off a freq kinda roll off your back....maybe redirect your ire towards something...anything...that matters. But having been a corporate pilot myelf for years...while your waitin on the pax to show, after you've eaten your catering, I guess it's time to do what we pilots sometimes do best.....b1tch about mindless stuff, we can't do anything about and that has no significance anyway.

I get it. Been there...done that, got the t-shirt...I moved on. Like now. Cheers
