where I have I been ?
I thought I had flown round the UK a lot, obviously when you pass your details when asked for them you say your type e.g "Bell 206 5 miles south of leicester etc etc"
but on the very first call you give full call sign and all subsequent contacts when addressed by ATC in the abbreviated format, you say " Helicopter Golf echo romeo" dont you?
someone who says every call "Jetranger Golf echo romeo" would be considered by me to be at the very least a tw*t, and I dont mean twit.
I have never heard anyone do this, I was taught, have taught everyone else to say "helicopter"
have i been missing something ?
sounds like a case of little man syndrome if you need to say that kind of thing. hey mr Vfrpilotpb, where have you heard all this ? or have I misunderstood you?
