Channel 9 on UAL
I always enjoy listening to channel 9 when I fly UAL and wondered why noone else offered it. Monday nite on a trip LAX-SFO I started listening to it as we taxied out from our gate at LAX. There was a conversation from another UAL plane that had evidently taxied past a point that the controller wanted to hold him. I think he stated, the tower told him to continue to further point, at which point the present controller said he'd have to come back. CLICK....that was the end of channel 9 for our trip! I imagine our pilot didn't want us listening to this situation, although I was curious. I can now see that although some passengers like to listen to it, pilots must consider it an invasion of their privacey and prefer not to have it.
