How to "cancel" MAYDAY
I hope this is the right place to post this question.
When getting my international R/T certificate we learned that if you wanted to cancel an emergency (i.e. your engine did start again), the correct phrase is:
"my callsign" CANCEL DISTRESS .....
you should NEVER EVER use the phrase "CANCEL MAYDAY", as the word MAYDAY usually triggers everybody and starts the panic.
Now I'm browsing through an UK PPL-theory book, that suggest the phrase "CANCEL MAYDAY".
Is the phrase "CANCEL DISTRESS" a local danish/scandinavian phrase or should I correct the UK-book. Anybody knows what the ICAO-docs says ??
