Redskin Blue : "we are approaching target confirm 2 o'clock FL310"

"Redskin Blue that is affirm reported L1011 no radio contact for 15 minutes entered Maastricht UAC 10 minutes ago"

Redskin Blue : "Roger, Tristar is confirmed , closing in.

"Redskin Blue confirm cockpit safe?"

Redskin Blue : "Standby one , I confirm old Tristar , lightly damaged hull , freighter , see crates with one day chickens behind last 10, no 12 windows stand by there's passengers as well in front part of aircraft I see quite a few bewilderd unconfirmed passengers.

"Redskin Blue roger that old Tristar combo pax freighter say pax state"

Redskin Blue : "pax not repeat not hostile, bad shaped aircraft , aileron is flapping a bit and leading edge flap seems loose on this side as well, stand by closing in on flight deck"

"Redskin Blue roger" -light background rumble and sounds of laughter-

Redskin Blue : "Wait there's three guy's in the flight deck smoking Havana's !"

"Redskin Blue that's 411A allright , standard ops return to base".


411A: Hmmm, between the 'guard police' and the 'practise PAN's' and the 'idle chit-chat', there can be only one logical solution...de-select 121.5 on the audio panel.
The Flight Engineer or First Officer can monitor if they so desire...most don't, for the afore mentioned reasons.
Works for me.

Arabian Gulf excepted.
