clearly said peanut was not worthy of being rated a peanut. Without your Tx identifying the calling frequency, said peanut prolly would not have realised what freq he received the initial call on
Good thing it wasn't me in your spot....i can't afford enough lawyers for what my response would have been.
Dunno about anyone else, but was out in the backwoods once and got asked to attempt to make contact with a certain aircraft, on several freq's including 121.5. Very little info was given from BN centre. An extremely disconcerting feeling to be sitting there trying to contact someone whose situation is uncertain.
I can say I have never been dumb enough to tx on guard.....other freq's...................................................... ................
quoting Kalavo
only takes 3 weeks to form a habit, and something a lot of us got taught at the PPL stage
Its surprising how few students get through without dealing with multiple radio's. Even more alarming, is that using the 2nd radio is actively discouraged by most instructors with the line "don't do that it'll only make it harder for you" Hence we go onto learn the hard way. My hard way was in a twin at NIGHT into YLTV. Fortunatley the other aircraft in the cct was monitoring MLCEN, so was fully aware of me.
Maybe the entry level training needs to put some more focus on aircraft subsystems, esp with glass cockpits becoming all the rage, and more differing between models.
