Least favorite ATC instructions... ... ...
I did an approach into HWD right after getting my IFR ticket.
I got a popup clearance a while out in VMC while I was under the hood and my friend being the safety pilot. While on the approach, at some point we went into IMC and broke out at about 700 feet AGL. The original plan was to fly down to minimums and then fly back to SQL VFR. Well I had to land since VFR wasn't possible and the guy in the tower kindly got a pop up (?) IFR clearance back to SQL. (a popup is usually from the air although i guess you can get them on the ground). Anyway he read the clearance back something like.... "Cherokee N12345, stay on present squawk, climb 2000, cleared to SQL, right turn 090 on departure." I started to read it back but was obviously confused as I tried putting everything in order as I was reading back in the usual CRATE sequence. Note, he didn't even give me a departure frequency. He replied, "Uh, ok, stupid me. Let me try it so even I can understand it." Gerald |

Most favorite ATC instructions
Mt favorite:
"Rocket Flight, cleared for the break; Cherokee 12345 expedite clearing runway, flight of four behind you; Cessna 3456 enter downwind behind flight of our coming into the break; expedite, another flight of four will break behind you." This is typical at Titusville (TIX) on a Saturday morning. Least favorite: Tower chewing somebody out when I am on final and #2 or #3 in my flight with wingman on the runway. I can't get a word in edgewise to clear wingman to cross and exit, so I have to go around. -- Remve "_" from email to reply to me personally. |

"John Clear" wrote in message ... In article .com, caleb wrote: 4) "I have a phone number for you to call after you land. Advise when ready to copy." That would be my least favorite. Haven't had the pleasure however. My next least favorite is to be anywhere in the LA basin and hear (without requesting it) "Flight following terminated, squawk VFR. Good-day".

Happens without fail when approaching the VFR corridor south of
Chicago, just when you'd really like to have FF. |
