How clever! You insulted me in Spanish! Very original and unexpected...

Since I don't speak spanish, I don't say queep like Buenas tardes, muchas gracias por su ayuda.

But I do try and not butcher the name of their facility. It's not hard to do when 9 out of 10 gringo pilots can correctly say "Merida."

But here's a hearty "up-yours" to all the @$$-clowns jumping on every mistaken transmission on guard today up and down the east coast. It's like they sit with their transmit-select on the guard radio so they can be the first ones to jump on the poor guy/gal who mistakenly transmits on guard.
The answer is simple. Tune the #2 HF to 7.811, raise that volume, enjoy Armed Forces Radio Network. Switch the tuner select to 121.5 so it looks like you are doing a great job listening in on guard.

Not to mention, if you're joking, protocol is to add some sort of winky/smiley thing so people know not to take your post too seriously.

A hearty TOTD to all the guys turning this into an RJ pilot Vs. Mainline pilot discussion. Let's get back to making fun of everyone else.

Indeed! I definitely nominate this guy for TOTD!

JFK ATC: Let the Abuse Start! - YouTube

Absolutely hilarious by JFK ATC. "alright let the abuse start, you're not gonna let him get away with that?"

I was starting to feel bad for even nominating the guy but if his actions can create a blitz of tool post does that mean he wins?

To the Pilots who do this:
We get it, you want to be a dick, congrats you succeeded. We all think you are one.
I wonder how many people have followed an E-Jet when told to follow an Airbus.
