Just after that there was a conversation with a United flight that was slowed for spacing into O'Hare and she asked: "How long are we gonna be at 260 you think?" Center: Well if I was a betting man I'd say about 4 minutes. United flight: Ok. Thanks. Me: Well, that's if you were going Warp 9 Center: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
McDuck 0 #4 October 3, 2003 That's hilarious! Grand Strand approach got cute with us once when my girlfriend was pilot in command. She started off using the radio, then let me take it after we taxied from the ramp. The controller said something like, "Roger that, three one whiskey, and your voice seems to have gotten deeper." That guy was a real smart-ass. I don't hear him there anymore though.
