I believe you will find that competition pilots are among the more disciplined
of the species when it comes to idle chatter on 3 & 5.With the GPS start and
finish gate, all you will hear is; "JJ started at 14:20", then we continue to
monitor 123.3 for safety advisories like, "NK, do you have me? NO, Look UP",
If we get in trouble you may hear something like this on 123.5, "NK's landing
at Garlach Flats, JJ can you relay?" Then you might hear, JJ's 4 miles out on
123.3. Thats it from the competition pilots.
The rules prohibit exchange of soaring information (like I'm going to give any
of that out) so you WON'T HEAR any; "Where are you? I'm over here, Got
anything? NO, How about you? Me neither, I don't see you? Well I haven't
moved, I'm still right here.
