An ATC question from a B767 Sim Instructor
Dear All,
Today one of my students came up with a great idea, as he got airbourne with a major engine malfunction, he could not remember his callsign, so he asked to change it to MAYDAY 1. I complied as ATC and it made comms easier for both the pilot and ATC.
Is this acceptable and what do you controllers think of this?
