“ABC, Confirm fully ready?” “Negative, only 3/4 ready ABC” xD It’s a well spread disease in Asia. Some people will claim “fully ready” means doors closed and tow truck connected but like everytime when someone is saying something questionable I always ask: “ Can you show me where it’s written?”
It’s definetely not in Doc 4444.
Or the people saying: “ with you” also is non standard and completely unnecessary. If you talk to the ATC, you are “with them” I can promiss you that. xD
One question I can’t find the answer:
If ATC calls you and just says: “ABC, tower.”
How do you reply: “ Tower, ABC, Go ahead” or “ GO ahead for ABC” or something else?? Can’t find any reference for that one.
