Even in the most remote spots of Alaska you can nearly
always raise an airliner on the way to Europe
Hi Pete,
I did that once in Nevada. Didn't know the frequency, so just switched around
until I heard an airliner talking to center. When the conversation stopped, I
called and said, " American 101, this is glider JJ, do you read?" Go ahead
replied American 101. Would you please switch to 123.5 and call JJ Ground? The
message is; JJ has landed at South West Gas. "You got it JJ". After a couple of
minutes, "They got it JJ".
Thanks to all the airline *relay* pilots out there.
