Firefly, correct, l only read and replied to the first posting. Mea culpa!

However, if l may add a question regarding the proliferation of verbal garbage in the modern flight deck;

Who's bright idea was it to change the call "one to go" to the verbose "one thousand feet to level off"???!

From three syllables to eight in one fell swoop defies logic. I trust it didn't originate from west of 30 West, the birthplace of yuckspeak, though such changes to a company's OM are very often credited to the manufacturer.
