Is it *really* possible that a certicated pilot would transmit a
statement like this into the ether, expecting the guy with the stuck
mike to actually be able to HEAR what he's saying?


There are actually a few situations in which the aircraft with a stuck
mike might hear the transmissions. Granted they are not common, but
they are neither impossible nor contrived.


And on a Unicom frequency those would be what?


Any frequency, if a pilot has two radios and both are tuned to the same freqency.

If a tank is out of ammunition, what you have is a sixty ton portable
radio.
