From CAP413 UK R/T Manual:
Chapter 4
1.7.8 When several runways are in use.........the runway number will be stated.
Monarch Man,
Altering standard phraseology to suit 'specific airports and specific runways is dangerous'. I can't understand how anyone could advocate it.
Sorry Gonzo,
standard phraseology and the "real" world are two entirely different things, as you well know.
Quoting chapter and verse out of CAP 413 smacks of a barrack room lawyer mentality.
standard phraseology is often trumpeted as the solution to everything from level busts, to runway incursion, in point of fact reading back and understanding a clearance are the salient points here and not, an issue of saying left or right.
If you can't be arsed to say 24L or 24R then get a paper round.
Damn my years of incident free and clearly understood aviating have mounted to nothing
