In my opinion this is a motocross term; WTFO: Wide Throttle, Full
Open. It is not used in aviation.
The definition given previously is common in Naval aviation.
Can't say I've heard it alot WRT GA, but I've done *my* part :-)

Gee Mr Fubar, I use that term all the time. Never heard anybody
include "WTFO" as a rating before! Really took the polar route on me.
I mangled the dirt bike WFO to get someone to react and spell it out
for me.
Next time, I'll RTFQ closer (clever secret airline term)
