"Your Location Traffic, NXYZ is going around due to departing traffic
on Runway **, will fly an upwind on the Right side of Runway **."


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... :-)

Why unkey the mic?

Controllers tend to get angry when you swear on the radio.

Well, I wouldn't do that, but I don't have any qualms letting the idiot
know that I know that he or she is an idiot. :-)

I agree. 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.

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.

The guy on downwind that you just turned towards is also in the air inside a
whole lot of expensive hardware. Safety is not generally enhanced by acting
contrary to ATC instructions.
