I have 20 posts per page, so only 49 pages. "only"
That's why if you want to cite a post, make sure to link to the post number, not tell someone "back on page 4".

That's kind of a let down. I was hoping to have 70 more pages of reading. I started at 10pm last night, read till 5am, slept till 8am, took a microeconomics final, and then came home to finish up. Now what do I have to fill up the rest of my day? Sure I could study for my pvt ground stage check but these ATC transmissions are a little more intriguing.

Cannot allow this great thread to die. Besides 2012 may be the last year it's up anyways.....
Heard just before switching to tower frequency:
Approach Control: Southwest 123, are you on the arrival?
SW123: Uhh, well we were given direct XYZ and then join the arrival from there.
Appch: Ok.....(pause) So are you direct XYZ at this time?
SW: Yeah, uhhh, we're uhh direct XYZ.
Appch: Ok...well XYZ is 10 miles east of you.
(pause)
SW: Uhh, well, we just passed XYZ.
Appch: Nooo, XYZ is 10 east of you.
(long pause)
Unknown transmitter: D'oh!!!!
You could hear Appch trying to key up but cutting off with laughter in the background.

best UA premier benefit
I was in a Mooney at 6500ft VFR just having passed PVD... A UA flight must have taken off just behind me on the same heading...
PVD Approach: UA123, maintain 6000, traffic is a Mooney 11 o'clock, three miles, VFR at 6500
UA123: maintain 6000, traffic in sight. hey, Mooney, your tail is on backwards. united123.
PVD Approach: Mooney 0RD, traffic is an airbus overtaking from behind holding at 6000.
Me: Traffic in sight, and hey United, be nice, I'm Premier on your airline. mooney0RD.
UA123, without missing a beat, half a mile off my wing, laughing: I take it back!
PVD Approach: UA123, traffic no factor, climb and maintain FL250
Have to say, best Premier benefit was getting the last word
My passenger was in awe lol
