G'Day "JR" good to see you have been let out the 'cooler'
You must have been as naughty as I was, banned
It's 'leaving' but common sense seems to have left aviation long ago with fancy words now like HR, CRM & all the feel good crap that goes with it & being politically correctListen to the yanks, they rapid fire off R /T chit chat so quick being 'perfect' is near impossible!

'fpvdude' brings up a good point. 'Leaving' & 'left' mean two diff things where 'leaving' is ref to the present now(as in it's happening at the present time ) & 'left' is past tense (he left the district years ago).
I say "out of", no ambiguity there
Being JEPPS perfect is overrated:-)
