00:00:00 A/C just airborne
00:00:30 ATCO: triple X, climb to FL 170 report passing 6000
00:00:35 pilot:
passing 6000 _____ <== so: omitting to acknowledge the most important element safety wise; no callsign
00:00:38 ATCO: ???
______________ <== ATCO being puzzled, but remaining puzzled??
And this was not the rest of the transcript??
00:00:42 ATCO: triple X, climb to FL 170 report passing 6000
00:00:38 pilot:
passing 6000
00:00:45 ATCO: triple X, climb to FL 170 report passing 6000. READ BACK
00:00:55 pilot: …
Surely, you can’t let them get away with this, can you? Not strictly by the book is one thing, but sloppiness with an incontestably safety aspect
