What if the controller then said... check your transponder is on, not receiving your mode C.

With double the breasts! :D

AND a hat, which, when worn backwards, makes me look like a U Boat Commander, so there's that! :D

Then you'd move up a number.

27:40 is when they checked in. 28:25 they get their delay and to go M /D.

You can compare voices. It doesn't sound the same.

Are you saying this if Fake, cause even if the original voice changed the controller was the same during the exchange Sooooooooo.

2 people have access to transmitters in the cockpit typically.. Soooooooo. ;) Use that noggin!

Totally fake and dubbed over ... How ever when I was based there for a short time period I did here one or two things identical to this. Controller got a little fresh with the FO on the radios and captain took over and said we don't need this ****!, controller responds with Delta 123 say ready to write down a phone number . captain responds with nope, don't have time to write down a number too busy operating a airplane . Controller didn't event know how to respond ... Then someone gets on and says , "like a bawwssss". Pretty funny ,

Unprofessional on both sides, however I think the controller was just trying to change his everyday life and have a touch of fun and the Delta boys couldn't hand with a sense of humor which then turned ugly.

Overall the tower people in ATL are on point . Hats off to them 99 percent of the time .

'Delta ops radio' Haha, that's funny right there.. 'You're on Guarrrrrdddddd ughhhhhhhhh'

I promise you it's a 100% real. I was taxing when it happened. Hence why I went on liveatc.net and found it. Anybody can find it there and I'm pretty sure that website doesn't make fake recordings.

July 25, 1100z, 121.75 for ground

Oh really I didn't realize that! * sarcasm.*...
You are missing what I was trying to clarify. That some may think this is fake I simply was making a point that regardless of who was on the raidio. This event DID happen.

Most of those who have posted on this thread are DL pilots (including who you quoted) and were trying to figure out if it was the fo or ca whose names we have access to (the offender will be appropriately excoriated)...no DL guys have intimated that it is fake. Liveatc is a direct recording of ATC freqs.

Was this 2422 yesterday, the 25th? If so, I don't recognize either name.

Does sound like a change of voice to me.

I should hope so. This one yahoo represents Not just Delta pilots but the entire profession. I cringe when I walk trough the terminal and see my regional counterparts with spike hair the ear buds and the nap sack not to mentioned the wrinkled shirts and dull shoes. I dunno maybe it's just the Military still in me.

Sooooo.... in airliners both pilots have the ability to talk. I made a picture for you since you seem to be unfamiliar.

The red circles and arrow point to where either pilot can key a microphone and talk to an air traffic controller, who in this case was is in the tall tower.

The controller is working what we call "Ground", and in Atlanta they clear you to taxi on the taxiways and then tell you to monitor tower, one of the few airports in the western hemisphere (outside of Canada) that seems to think they need to tell you that.

Should I continue? :D

Yawn.

Actually, listen to the tape. There are a lot of Delta professionals on the frequency sounding like we do, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, everywhere around the world.

Then there is that hothead acting hot and bothered and unable to control his anger which kind of reminds me of... ... you.

I landed right after that. Dang. I want to hear myself on the radio. :D

Unprofessional behavior? Absolutely. No doubt about it.

We all make mistakes, do stupid things, say stupid things. And most people act/speak completely different when they know a camera or microphone is on. That's what makes this transmission all the more bizarre, because he KNEW the transmission was being recorded. That makes me think there has to be something going on in his personal life that has him on edge.

That being said, your comment about you'd "expect nothing less from Delta 'professionals' says a lot more about you than about those you're obviously trying to slam. No DAL is defending this guy's actions. Why the angst?

There's a song for that!

Daniel Powter - Bad Day (Official Music Video) - YouTube

He was probably on his way to Boston to score some smack when ATC threw that delay at him...oh wait, wrong air line...but there's a song for that too!

I suspect Stu is still mad he didn't get hired by Delta....and he still wonders why? :eek:

OK Mr. Smartypants. What does all that other stuff do?

How do you MD88 pilots know where you are going?

That's probably why the flight crew was on edge. They got tired of saying "we show we are on the airway" all morning.

I've been waiting for them to change the universal Delta Ramp freq to 121.5

And yes, it should be called "Delta Ramp" even in places like Charlotte, Dallas, Chicago and Philadelphia. Doesn't everyone know Philly only exists as PIT stop for Kennedy arrivals when it is raining?

Yikes Capt is a 91 hire and FO is a 98. Talk about super stagnation. I flew with many 91 hires as an FO on the 88 on reserve. No one else wanted to fly with them. Stagnation plus MD-88 makes for really angry pilots.

Don't worry, pay banding will fix all that...:rolleyes:

Sounds like the widget needs to hire a new shrink.

If it's not fake, then this Delta cat needs to seriously find a new life / career .... Who gets that worked up over something so small.... And that controller is actually a great and nice guy . Talk to him a few times ....

Go find a woman / boy ( your pref ) or yoga or tinder and chill out ....

Stagnated by choice. 91' could be flying ER A, and 98' 330 B, even as fNWA in other than ATL

I would think they should get a call from that.

Now THAT was funny.

I nominate you for TOTD. You've earned it!

It must be tiring carrying that huge chip on your shoulder day in and day out.

More like, "no we don't have that fix either..."

You remind me of this guy I heard on the radio... well, that I heard on an Internet replay of the radio.

Then why keep posting on "our" Air Line Pilot Central Forum? :cool::rolleyes: We may be able to survive without you?



See above.

You hijacked a thread about a mad Delta pilot to show us that you're even more mad.

Yeah, so what is your point?

Delta is number one Fortune Magazine best places to work. Put in an open white slip, find out for yourself.*

(that works even if you don't fly for Delta because we own a percentage of, or outsource to, every other airline on the planet except for Norwegian and I'm sure we will work that out before too long ... yeah, enjoy the ride in "our" crew van)

harbor?

The pool is great... Lifeguard is on break. I guess it's like a small harbor.

Could you explain how they fleeced the American tax payers or for that matter the retires?

Finally got the audio to work on the file ... yowza ... Pro Stans blanket party ... or maybe he was trying to get his Captain violated.

Appropriate response was "thank you." Atlanta is great about NOT violating flight crews for inconsequential failures at playing "simon says." Pilots like (for any airline) that have the potential to reduce the efficiency and friendliness at the World's Busiest Airport.

There is a huge difference between righteous indignation and stupidity. Radio boy crossed the line into major stupidity with that one.
