Y'know, I get a kick out of this statement...although I've flown
in the busuness end of aircraft for 25-26 years while logging
13,000 hours of flying time, I've NEVER heard any pilot say
"Mayday" on air ever, not once in all that time!

Well, you can't hear everything! :-)

I've declared mayday twice, got all the help I needed.
I'm here to say it works, and I will use it again, at need.

Best regards,
