I'd probably say I was going around due to a fool on the runway, but otherwise I concur with what you suggest. :-) I normally unkey the mic and THEN say what I really want... :-) |

And none of us really want to hear your pain, unhappiness, inconvenience, etc. Try to be a professional and handle the situation as you have been taught. |

Not sure if that was supposed to be an insult. I'm always professional on the radio. But name one pilot who doesn't bitch when he gets on the ground. |

I don't see the harm in adding just one more word in the previously suggested transmission such as: Your Location Traffic, NXYZ is going around due to ^"unexpected"^ departing traffic on Runway **, will fly an upwind on the Right side of Runway **." It would constructively point out to the departing plane that he/she had done a poor job of scanning for traffic on short final, and might save an incident at some later date. -- Jim in NC |

LOL....I can't believe some people think it's impossible to sound professional AND annoyed by an idiot in the same tone. |

Keep the fool in sight and stay out of his way. ATC is on the ground,
you are in the air inside a whole lot of expensive hardware. |
