"NY departure this is N123XX."

You are just wasting airtime with that last transmission.


See? Now you know something new.


ATC is going to expect a readback.



Is that only if they give you a reason?

They aren't expecting and don't really want a readback.
If they're so busy that they tell everybody to standby and
remain clear the last thing they need is some clown continuing
to talk.

This is like Homer Simpson who where it was written do not write
below this line, wrote "OK."
