Not that it matters, but, what equipment and base?

Look up 2422 out of ATL on iCrew... ATL 88.

I can't tell if the voice changed from the earlier transmissions. Regardless, I really hope the non-offending party had a little "chat" with the other. TOTD for that dude.

I'm not the most social person for 0625 sign-ins, but I'm not that fussy.

Lol. We all have a bad day from time to time. It's probably best not to have it recorded and put on the Imternet forever.

The one voice is so much clearer than all the other transmissions, it almost sounds faked.

But I would have loved to have been on the freq. and busted his chops for that rant.

What a tool.

My favorite line, "I make a mistake about every 2-3 minutes, but I don't have an attitude about it!"

Um, yes, you do! Dip sh!t.

I've gotten testy at times but never like that. I thought the ATC guy handled it remarkably well especially since they were on the wrong taxiway (and, apparently ATL-based).

I think the voice changed, my guess is it was the captain. Plus, I can't see an FO saying something like "We'll get there however we want".

16 years as an 88B would do that to anyone

You can never win an argument over the radio. So why even start one?

Best left for the dinner table.

Care to guess what the person he was flying with was thinking?
