Liverpool, 1980's.
US Military had some sort of operation at Burtonwood - just off to the NorthEast of the zone....... arriving for an ILS app runway 27, in a King Air, with the callsign "Lord xxx".
Cessna 172 (G-MALK was downwind in the visual circuit, doing touch and go's). Instructor in Cessna was monitoring Approach frequency in headset - whilst student and same instructor were working tower on loudspeaker....
Twr: "G-LK, ILS traffic at 5 miles, report traffic in sight."
G-LK: "Wilco, G-LK"
Pause.
G-LK "Hallelujah"
Twr: "G-LK, say again???????????"
G-LK "I have seen the Lord!!!"
(edited to put Burtonwood in the correct quadrant)
