procedure.

When I'm directed to "... hold short of runway 29 Right," I reply, "Hold
short 29 Right, 18 November." Of course, none of the phraseology examples
I've seen allow stating the aircraft identification last, but I usually do
that, so who am I to criticize your radio procedures. g

Yeah, rec.aviation.student is the only student group I know of, but I don't
follow it.

I might be anal, but I always state my runway when taxing, holding short, starting departure roll, or landing. I just always want the tower to know what runway it is my understanding that I should be on.
