Make sure to reference any flight paperwork as part of "the mission folder" and the active runway as "the duty runway".
LGA controllers LOVE hearing that. From my experience, LGA controllers, especially ground, just want you to shut the F up and wait until you're called......:cool: |

But listening to a pilot at the gate involved in conversation over what the "duty runway" is because ATIS is saying departures are using 13 but a USair MetroJet 737-200 is taxing to another runway (I'm guessing for performance reasons, don't care) and causing the pilot confusion was pretty funny. Especially when the pilot KEPT asking why MetroJet is taxiing to another runway despite the "duty runway" being 13. Till the controller just said "the ATIS says the active is 13, unless you tell me different, you're going to 13 also, don't argue" Controller probably further confused him by calling it the "active runway". |

I really enjoy the increased professionalism of the controllers at EWR. (in my opinion) |

I'll chime in here, I had a new hire as my sim partner when I upgraded to 7ER A back in 2008. USAF fighter guy. In the sim he made the following radio call "Delta 757 gear down full stop". I had to chuckle as I said " all our landings are full stops". As a former fighter guy I have to admit I benefited greatly from riding side saddle my first year, the regional guys have the airline flow down when they come here.

I really enjoy the increased professionalism of the controllers at EWR. (in my opinion) FAA Program Manager on our Jumpseat giving the Boss a line check while this whole thing went down ... ugh ... Newark. He seemed happy enough with what we had done ... no debrief, no paperwork. Still, it would be preferable if Newark didn't run business jets underneath you to crossing runways. In this day of having 250 wanna be documentarian photographers on board, you don't want to have a picture taken out the window be full of a business jet rolling out on the runway you just went missed from. Too interesting by far. |
