We were trying to find the number for the controlling facility when ATC called the airport to see if we had crashed. Found out later that some other poor bastard was circling to get in. Arrrgh.
Ain't just you my friend. I've sat in the cockpit of a 145 cancelling clearance inbound and trying to get one outbound on my cell phone. Henceforth - I avoid charter flying.
