Douchey Pilot Things. A list

[Fixtur]

23. Making douchey lists for the internet.

Same. Although some esoteric stuff can make for a fun discussion… with consent.

Do we agree on a safeword prior to systems discussion in cruise?

Psh. You don't know me.

 

[BlueMoon]

What can you do about it in the van I guess

About the same thing I can do when I’m at the plane. Not much.

 

[BlueMoon]

Acting like your world view is the one and only correct world view and everyone else is wrong.

 

[BlueMoon]

“There was serious voter fraud in 2020”….

 

[poser765]

How about the dude with an inoperable sticker over the camera on their EFB?

 

[fholbert]

"Airline1234 4000 climbing to 5000"

What's wrong with that?

I don't believe in safewords.

 

[ASpilot2be]

What's wrong with that?

It was drilled into me to never use to and for with altitude read backs. It can cause confusion.

 

[JDean3204]

Pilots judging other pilots on how they carry out their business is douchey. Unless it causes unrest or harm to others, who cares.

Shark is big fan of phraseology.

whoever "drilled it into you" was, quite simply, wrong.

everyone is a fan of their own phraseology, regardless of whether its appropriate or not.

Shark is big fan of phraseology.

• Got 'em on the fish finder.
• 4247 on the magic box
• 4247 with a flash.
• Runway 26 ready for departure in sequence (when your the only one)
• "with you"

 

[knot4u]

Being out on the ramp, in the rain, and as a mechanic walking around an airplane to explain to the captain what's been done to fix it. Climb up the stairs to finish the paperwork and the pilot tells me to remove my shoes so I don't get the carpet dirty and leaves his on.

 

[A300Capt]

“New York depaaaaahhhhcha United 123 with you…”

More like: “New York depaaaaahhhhcha, how yuuuuu doin’..? United 123 with you…”

I was taught the same thing at some point, but it's in the AIM to use to and from. 5-3-1 b.2. is an example.

He might be right. I don't put a "to" or "for" in an altitude transmission. Don't remember why but my guess he's right.

I like to respond in my best southern drawl
