Even more common is -
"G-ABCD Finals 27 Right"
Not so bad until one realises that the airfield has only one strip (09/27) and the pilot is making an approach to that runway. Apparently the guy was referring to the circuit direction.........but does it matter when one is on final?
UK R/T is far superior to ICAO stuff....they even publish their own in depth manual........pity few pilots ever read it.
