Default The Scariest Thing I've Ever Seen - Stoopid Pilot Tricks...

You should carry your Icom to listen to see if the pilot was saying anything
on Unicom, center, FSS, etc.


Now that's the kind of suggestion I'd expect to hear from a guy that
lives in Hawaii, or Phoenix, or someplace that doesn't get winter. Is
a guy from *Minnesota* really suggesting that I should carry a scanner
while I'm shoveling snow, with the temperature around minus 1 F?

Heck, if I could even find a place to hang the danged thing, I wouldn't
be able to hear it, underneath the 13 layers of clothing I was wearing!


:-)

We do play Unicom all the time in the lobby; I just happened to be
outside when this guy flew over...
