Thank you. Well said! Company XYZ said that on the radio and it sounded so cool. I think I'll say it. Some may not care about the words but the controller who has to hear this crap day in and day out certainly cares! Why don't we hear this BS in other parts of the world? Oh yeah, it's because they have this thing called maturity!!

The SWA pilot who asks for direct when that actually gives them more of a NAM headwind. You mean six minutes late!

Annnnnnnnndddd 99% of the time they ask the question to base other's speeds off of yours. You don't need to respond to their question with another question. #gotemonthefishfinder
