IFR flight from KNEW to KMBO - Video

of the runway number, but I can't find it now. Maybe it's just a local
procedure.

When I'm directed to "... hold short of runway 29 Right," I reply, "Hold
short 29 Right, 18 November." Of course, none of the phraseology examples
I've seen allow stating the aircraft identification last, but I usually do
that, so who am I to criticize your radio procedures. g

Yeah, rec.aviation.student is the only student group I know of, but I don't
follow it.

I might be anal, but I always state my runway when taxing, holding short, starting departure roll, or landing. I just always want the tower to know what runway it is my understanding that I should be on.

Absolutely nothing anal about being sure :-) As you can see, I
clarified the runway assignment as I was taxiing as I couldn't
remember in the beginning what ATC said.

My problem is inexperience with controlled field ground ops, and I
always would rather sound dumb on the radio then do something dumb on
the ground.
