It would be amusing to have MX copy a real clearance, wouldn't it?


I do it all the time, and it's easy once you're used to it.


Maybe not from JFK but a smaller airport. Want to bet there would be
several "say again's", followed by the delivery guy saying something
like "read my lips".


It would actually be something like "Readback is correct."


Of course, many private pilots cannot copy a clearance correctly, if they
aren't already used to doing so.


Youn have never heard "Readback is correct" from a real controller
over the radio in response to your readback of the issued flight plan
that was based on a flight plan you filed. . Never.You can type the
type, but never copied a clearance in a cockpit, nor ever flew it.
You, pretending, have no basis on which to compare reality.


He doesn't know that before you have a PPL in your pocket you have to
have a Radio Rating..
Is it just my impression or is MX getting crazier ?
