That's gold - reminded me of last night. Departed Moorabbin to head east, tuned into Melbourne Radar and I hear this. (he was talking in free speech)

"Melbourne Radar, this is XLR, we are departing Baccus Marsh for Point Cook at 2,000ft. There's a lot of of traffic around here at the moment and a lot of them are Rookies and I'm not happy about mixing it with them so I'd like to arrange for a clearance to transit from Baccus Marsh to Point Cook at 3,500ft. Is that ok? Most of these guys don't seem to know what they are doing."


He got his clearance and I chuckled to myself about who the "rookie" actually was...
