The lighter side...
I was party to a cracker this fairly quiet evening....
Inbound on descent (see what I did there?!)- and just before being handed off to approach the en route fella advises we should slow to 230 due to a go-around. I enquire if it was due to weather- said fella says due spacing and hands us off.
Shortly after checking in with approach, the poor bugger was I assume attempting to apologise to his tower colleague, but had some finger trouble. The broadcast as follows:
APP: Sorry (mate), I f#cked that up.
Me: And that!
APP: (With I hope a little chuckle) Apologies for the language.
QFfella: You're human!
Me: Love it!
...and then we all got on with it. Gave us all a laugh - hope it doesn't cost him too much at the bar.
