One of my favorites happened while flying with my dad. We were holding on the runway waiting for a plane on very short final when I asked my dad if the planes wheels were down. Without resounding to me my dad keyed the radio and said "Aircraft on final. Go around! Gears gears gears." He said the final "gears" as the plane crossed in front of us about not too many feet or so above the ground. Fortunately the pilot was already responding to the "go around" call and had already added power. He came withing about 10 or 15 feet of the ground but was able to climb out and PROPERLY configure his plane for landing. Clearly the pilot was good enough to understand when you hear "go around" you just do it. Don't bother asking why. The guy came over the radio and thanked my dad. Dad just said, "Thank my 12 year old son." It was the best ever "Thanks kid." I ever heard.

There's an airport I fly into often where the tower will actually announce "check gear down" in your landing clearance. Even if you are fixed gear lol. It's a joint public/ANG base so I figure it's something to do with the military traffic.

And of course, the people who chat about their lives on the CTAF are the worst. The guy who taught me to fly did this a bit. He would call out to people whose voices he recognised. He only did it for 30 seconds at a time, so it wasn't too bad. One time I was flying from Knoxville to Chattanooga (probably mostly to get cross-country time; I think it was when I needed to be building cross-country hours, so I was VFR with not a lot to do). And air time is the most precious thing around, so I generally do my own reporting and otherwise stay off the air. I was monitoring 122.8, and two guys apparently in different airplanes that knew each other starting having a long conversation about their weekend. They talked for a couple of minutes on air, and then went silent. I thought "phew, that's over". And then they got back on frequency and spent another couple of minutes talking about what they were going to do the following weekend. Then that finally tapered off, so I still stayed off. But then they started talking about where they were going for Christmas. I waited for a gap, keyed the mic and said "To the two guys who are talking about Christmas; the rest of us don't care". There was deafening silence.

Once, a year or so ago, the tower at SAC had an on-frequency discussion with a pilot who had just returned from visiting New York City. He was commenting about the large numbers of cops on the streets and how comforting that seemed to him. It went on for more than a minute, and I was wanting to say goodby and jump to NorCal for flight following. When the friendly conversation finally concluded I got on the frequency and told the tower I'd like to change my plans and get direct to New York City . . . In a Cherokee 140.

There is a radio culture which, rightly or wrongly, impacts things. I started my flight training at a fully controlled airfield that was also a very busy training field for professional & private students. I got very good at taking a moment to prepare what to say before saying it and getting ahead of my little plane. I was very proud of my radio work. I did my last 30 hours of training at a completely uncontrolled airport. I got razzed by instructors for doing regular position call outs to local traffic in the student practice area to update where I was and what menouvers I was practicing, just in case. One instructor in another plane in the practice area went so far as to begin requesting position checks one after another, again and again to make fun. I answered them all as is legally required but that was BS. There were a number of uncontrolled procedure call outs I would have been shot for ignoring but this airport told you not to bother doing since it was, their own frequency. The other one I loved was sloppy activity in the circuit. Call out turning on base, half way along downwind and then taking the xcountry downwind. The one that stands out was coming over the Center field to join the downwind. I notice another Cessna that was crossing along downwind but was above. It was an instructor and he called out his altitude as the circuit alt and claiming to be in the circuit. I called back asking if he was the Cessna at (circuit+75 feet). He was shocked and admitted he wasn’t where he said he was. 2 years later he and a student died in a midair collision on their way to the practice area. He was a sweet fellow. So yeah, maybe some bad habits were forced on potentially good pilots because of local airfield culture.

Good points. My guess is that starting a radio transmission with "uhh" or "ahhh" was someone's idea of how to avoid "short keying". Short keying is keying the mic, trying to start speaking right away, and having your first word or syllable get cut off because you either timed it wrong, or the radio didn't react as fast as your mouth.

I think people in general use those filler words (um, and, like, etc) in everyday conversations so there will be pilots who speak that way. It is hard to break the habit after you've been using them for so long. It took me a long time to stop and I didn't even realize I used filler words until a professor pointed it out to be back in college. People just sound more eloquent and articulate when those words aren't used.

I disagree about the 15 mile final call. Turbojets and other aircraft (which do also operate into many uncontrolled fields) may be operating in excess of 200kts on a 15 mile final. Nothing like coming in after a 4 hour flight to be cut off by a Cessna doing 65kts while you're screaming down slowing to your final speed which is still almost 100 kts faster than the Cessna. It helps to alert someone who may be better off delaying their base turn to allow a much faster airplane from having to maneuver around abnormally or go around because of your slowness.
@jibeneyto91

Agreed. It's definitely not redundant. Even if you're 15 miles out on a 172, at least you give some notice so the people around the airport know somebody is coming in. Somebody on the ground might for instance decide not to do their power checks on the runway and things like that.

I was taught as a general rule for a single piston, only call 10 miles out at an untowered field, unless you observe that there is potentially conflicting traffic in the area. I think it's just down to common sense, and depends on the situation. If you don't hear a lot of activity on the CTAF for the field, not much need to call more than 10 miles out. Plus, in this area at least, planes utilizing flight following don't get cleared to change to CTAF until about 10 miles out, so they wouldn't hear your call anyway.

I totally agree and was going to make this comment. 15 miles out is like a Cessna calling at 5 miles out. And 200kts...how about 250, 15 miles into uncontrolled is a good time to start configuring depending on altitude above field. Over the next 10 miles we'll slow to about 180-170 until 5 out and then finish slowing to final approach speed around the 130-150 range depending on weight. This is typical in most airliners CRJ/ERJ/73/A32x/71 15 miles at 200kts average speed takes 4.5 minutes, 5 miles at 68kts takes 4 minutes 24 sec. I'm sorry but when you are flying a jet you really don't want to go around because some Cessna thinks they can beat you in. Doing 1 std rate 360 takes 2 minutes and at 12gph it costs half a gallon. A A320 go around is a minimum of 400lbs of fuel or roughly 60 gallons. Airlines don't rule the sky, but you probably wouldn't do it if you were getting the bill.

You're always supposed to give your altitude in a hand-off. This allows to controller to 1) verify that the altitude your transponder is sending is the same as your altimeter and 2) make sure that your intentions with respect to altitude are the same as they have down for you. Yeah, in recent years, I've learned to leave off "with you" and "level". So just "Atlanta Center, Skyhawk 12345 seven thousand" which is pretty concise. The other day, though, I was handed between centers when I was halfway down a "at your discression" descent from 11k to 7k, and I hadn't realized I was about to transition, so my callback was a bit long because I hadn't thought it through. Oops.

I find the American slang funny and also a bit worrying since it can be confusing. Standard fraseology should be used everywhere in my opinion. I agree on that one. The part where you mentioned approaching an airfield and asking data about the conditions and the runway in use, I do not agree. I have been taught to get airfield information ahead of time so I can prepare for the approach. This also means that visual check of the airfield is not required. Of course you can hear it from other aircraft's traffic announcements. All in all this video needed to be made!

Curious what your last line is referring to. As for getting the conditions of the airport, of course you should do that on your way in! It's just how people are doing it that's not recommended by the FAA. Using AWOS/ASOS/UNICOM is a great idea. Asking pilots what they're doing two seconds after changing frequencies and not even listening to the traffic, is not a great idea.

Been flying 45 years professionally at all levels. My pet peeve is pilots who say "ready for takeoff IN SEQUENCE." It meants nothing. If there is a particular sequence, tower will assign it and you don't need to tell tower. In the vast majority of cases I see however, tower has not assigned a sequence it is just some verbal vomit the pilot thinks sounds official. The sad thing is that I have seen the phrase move from bugsmasher pilots many years ago to full blown airline pilots now. They heard someone say it, thought it sounded very pilot like and started saying it, having no idea what it really means. Another one is "at this point in time". Really? Pretty sure when you say something, you mean "now". But golly, doncha just sound like a real pilot? Well sorry for the rant but this video touched some things that make me crazy. Wish pilots would try to fly better and not try to sound like Steve Canyon using foolish terms. Yes, even professional airline pilots. Kind of worries me.

I was trained to use military terms like No Joy, Judy, RTB, Bingo fuel, etc. thinking they were common and understood by everyone. In my younger pilot days, I thought it would be a good idea to rent a Cessna at the North Las Vegas airport and visit the Hoover Dam and area. It was then that I realized that my air communications had to be much more clear and concise. The slang and local terms for the Las Vegas area certainly surprised me. I was told "Proceed Red Rock", "Fly to the Spaghetti bowl", "Stay out of Charlie airspace", "Line up with Flamingo Drive" "Avoid Nellis" and "Proceed to the Golf Course". Eventually I had to say "Unfamiliar with the area". This experience gave me some respect for using standard terminology so that everyone understands where you are and where you are going. Pilots at my airport use local slang like "over the stacks" "over the dam" or "over the river" and it definitely doesn't help visiting pilots know where you are.

As a Civil Air Patrol cadet, I get a lot of emergency services training, including proper radio terminology. One of the things that annoys me most is when someone, in real life or in a movie, says ‘Over and out’. This is a contradictory statement because although both of those mean ‘I’m finished talking’, “over” means that a reply is expected, while ”out” signifies that no reply is expected. As I said, this makes ‘Over and out’ a contradictory statement, and it really bothers me. The second is when someone says “Roger, Wilco”(roger, will comply). I don’t exactly remember why, but this also incorrect use of pro-words.

However, let me try using the same phrases in my Cessna 140, and brother, watch out! Here come the criticisms. I wonder why that is? I do think most controllers and other pilots unconsciously consider any pilot transmitting from any Cessna or Piper aircraft to be a low-time, inexperienced Private or Student pilot. What is it, bigger is better, or, might makes right...? Funny.

I fly out of a busy towered airport so the thing that always makes me cringe is when the number one guy holding short is issued "line up and wait" and the guy behind him pulls up to the hold short line and calls "holding short." For one, tower is just going to tell you to keep holding short, there's an airplane sitting on the runway right in front of you. What's worse though is now you've got this guy calling up and blocking the tower who's trying to clear this guy for takeoff while there's another guy inside a 1.5 mile final. That and people calling up that they're holding short immediately after tower issues an instruction to someone in the pattern without waiting for the guy to respond, blocking the response. Causes a whole bunch of headache for everyone involved and it's unsafe.

I always had a lot of respect of radio communications, before I started to do my licence (in Germany). Now as a student pilot, it works pretty well. But I was only flying at uncontrolled airfields so far. That said, whenever I listen to any radio chatter from KJFK or other big American airports, I understand nearly nothing!! ...not even if they use proper phraseology. Because when they say for example "American 1482, cross Rwy 4L, hold short of Foxtrott" (when labels are on), it sounds to me like "Acn feeh too, czz ffleft hshotfxtrtt".... not that I could ever fly there, but a bit frustrating anyway, if you are theoretically licenced to take part in such conversations..

Identify by one of the following means: (2) The type of aircraft followed by the characters of the registration marking (“N” number) of the aircraft, omitting the prefix letter “N.” When communication is initiated by a ground station, an aircraft station may use the type of aircraft followed by the last three characters of the registration marking.

As a pilot who uses non-towered fields 99% of the time, here's what area traffic needs to know and why: Who you are addressing. Example - Mansfield Traffic There are often multiple fields on the same frequency. Aircraft type. Not Cessna, not Piper, not Experimental, but Skylane, Lance, Lancair. This helps us judge how fast you are coming or going. There is a huge variation in aircraft speeds, and saying your specific type or model helps us sequence better. Your tail number. Abbreviated is fine. We need to be able to distinguish between aircraft of the same type. Multiple 150s or Cherokees are common. Your current position. Your intentions. Think about what you're going to say before keying up, and be specific. The initial call up at 10 or 15 miles out doesen't need to be super detailed, but provide those details in subsequent calls. Finish up the call with the name of airfield. It's easy for area traffic to miss it the first time because so many people don't speak clearly and deliberately. Paint color is almost always useless. Don't bother unless your situation makes it useful in some way. My #1 pet peeve is pilots trying to use their super cool airline pilot voice. News flash: airline pilots are the hardest of the bunch to understand on the radio. Slow down, speak clearly, and with sufficient volume at non-towered fields. The pilots there are usually weekend warriors that don't fly everyday on IFR flight plans, talking to controllers. Plain English is the way.

I'd rather hear slang because to an extent, it tells me that you know what you're doing... of course that's not at all a sure tell, and could just be someone trying to sound cool but that's also pretty easy to discern on a radio.

Yes, use common sense and don't jam the radios with too much chatter. As someone else pointed out, I frequently operate at uncontrolled fields with no prior warning flying a medium weight (below MGTOW of 300,000lbs) wake turbulence aircraft that has a final approach speed of around 140kts. At 15 miles it's common for me to be operating between 200 - 250 kts. That means I'm eating up 1 mile every 15 seconds. Just saying....

I've always got the urge to say "visual"/"blind" The military brevity is a lot snappier than "traffic in sight" or "negative contact" or "looking for traffic"

Couple things I don't want to hear a pilot say on a radio. 1. Any kind of expletive. 2. 'Uh-oh.' 3. 'ZZzzzz.' 4. Any sort of panicked gibberish. 5. 'Bingo Fuel.' 6. Any sort of smalltalk. 7. More than 1 voice on a single transmission. 8. Any Top Gun quote.

Just the other day I heard someone say they were "descending for flight level 045". I LOL'd.

My highest respect to the pilots that go by the book. And extra respect to those who succeed when the book runs out and help write the next chapter.

What music do you use in you're videos ? Could I have a download link? Also, I heard from a pilot to avoid the big fluffy white clouds and go for the stripy/wispy clouds instead, he said the fluffy clouds had much more turbulence, is this true?

Most of it's in the KZitem creator's library. This one is called, "Learning is Fun," believe it or not! Haha, Hm. Good question. I would agree that the puffy ones are more turbulent, and possible cause a wider area of disturbance, but the wispy ones are indicative of high winds. Pick your poison :) Of course, VFR pilots never have to worry about this, but being even 1,000ft on top can be bumpy in the summer.

Phraseology for use in radio communication is intentionally chosen to allow for clear communication at all times no matter the quality of the signal or proficiency of English of the users, it is designed to be unambiguous and easily distinguished. If you use slang and non-standard phraseology and another operator is not a native English speaker or is unfamiliar with the slang terms it may cause confusion and in fields such as aviation confusion is dangerous and places multiple lives at risk.

I think these problems are exclusively American. I haven't heard of or encountered any such examples in the countries I fly to and from. We are drilled from an early stage on proper radiotelephony where I come from. (Excuse my grammar)

Really? Exclusively an American problem huh? You're right no GA in Canada, and everyone here speaks the Queen's English. No accents up here to deal with at all.

Well, we have a lot of immigrants who don't speak English very well. Sorry we don't measure up to your holier than thou standards. As if you have no idiots in your country. It's America that set the standard for all this stuff.

Try flying in Europe where people are constantly crossing borders and only a small percentage of them are native English speakers. I think you’ll find limited English is a much bigger issue in Europe. It’s for that reason that standard, non-slang phraseology is incredibly important. There’s a hell of a lot of radio slang in the US that nobody else, not even English speakers, uses outside of the US. Hell, I’ve even flown 80 hours in the US and I’d have no idea what “flash”, “fish finder”, or “no joy” means! The most problematic slang is saying frequencies like “one twenty-three” rather than “one two three” - I’ve heard a number of examples where numbers are misheard because of this, and I’m not talking about “immigrants” or “foreigners”.
