In that case, you are the tool of the day. Congrats!

Have to agree with shy. That is toolish to have the strobes on when lined up on the runway. A little common sense makes Regs and policies go a long way.

You're understanding is that someone considered a bastard actually does not have a father? That would be a neat trick.

Isn't the only criterion that the bastard is born out of wedlock, usually as the result of an afffair (but not required)?

Lighten up, Francis.
Many bastards don't know who their father is.

I think you need to revisit how the birds and the bees work. :eek:

And I plan to get on that as soon as this trip ends.:D

I'll eat crow if they were in a line on a runway being utilized as a taxiway.

The original post said several radio calls were made about the strobes. Unlikely that would happen if it was a proper use of them.

People have done that to aircraft in position and hold... and complained about it here!

Like I wrote earlier, anyone who critiques a pilot for flipping on the strobes while sitting on the active waiting for departure is a dangerous clown. AA and it's step children seem to be overrun with these Bozos based on my experience in CLT and PHL. Mine will always be on. Don't like 'em? Don't look at 'em.

Welcome to APC! In general, the number of posts on a subject varies inversely with the subject's importance. :p

It has gotten far too excessive and is rampant all over the whole eastern seaboard. The FCC is clamping down finally. No more guard idiocy.

Triangulation and correlation with ADS-B data would be easy, so finally the tools will have to be quiet. :D
