wrote in message news:z4rrf.2354$Q73.1263@trnddc03... What I really like to hear (while cruising at 8000) is "Arrow 41N, you are overtaking traffic ahead. I'll need to move you to 7000 or 9000 for a few miles, your choice." You dropped the "would" from that sentence. |

How long did you have to think about getting back on the ground? :-) Matt Certainly it was under a second. It's the ride down that makes your butt hole real tight. |

oups.com... 3) "cleared to land on any runway" #3 doesn't bother me if it's the "field is wide open land wherever you want" variety; if it's the "you have big problems, go ahead and land wherever you can, trucks are rolling" sort, then it's no fun! My personal least-favorite (which I've received twice): "Cleared to land runway XX; land at your own risk" -- given by tower when wx drops below published mins (above mins when approach started, broke out at/before reaching DH [despite "official" wx]). No big deal, I guess, but the "at your own risk" wording sure got our attention!!

wrote: My personal least-favorite (which I've received twice): I had the old "alternating red/green" light signal once. Flying a 65-hp Taylorcraft, NORDO, mid-1970s, up the California central valley, out of Porterville on this particular leg. I was trying to make some northing before a winter cold front shut things down. WX was clear departing Porterville, with a lusty tailwind (which should have told me something), but around Stockton, I decided I needed to make a 180 and find a place to land. Of course, the tailwind was now on my nose. By the time I was over Merced, I decided that NORDO or not, this was not the time to be insisting on an uncontrolled field. So I made a low pass, flew the pattern once more, and on final, I got the alternating red/green. "Thanks, fellas," I thought. "Extreme caution is exactly what I am executing right at this moment." Actually, the tower was great. No sooner had the tail come down (at about zero groundspeed) when there were two guys from the FBO hanging on each set of struts. They walked me to a tie-down and we all got to the office shortly before the first rain shower hit. The front blew through in a few hours, the sun came out, and from that point, there was nothing in the way but some easily avoidable squall lines. I talked to the tower on the phone, topped off, got flashing green and then steady green and was out of there. |
