2042:22 GC Be advised when you guys are making transmissions identify yourself first so everybody knows who's talking to who
2042:29 864 Yeah Allegiant 864 who's telling us not to evacuate
2042:34 Unknown Airport Command RF 2 I'm telling you not to evacuate yet
2042:37 864 All right
2043:01 864 Allegiant 864 why do you want us to hold
2043:17 864 We need answer please why do you want us to hold on the evacuation
2043:27 GC RF 2 Command safety ground did you copy Allegiant's transmission
2043:36 GC Ops 1 are you on St. Pete ground
2043:44 GC Okay are there any emergency vehicles any of the RF vehicles on ground frequency
2043:51 RF3 Affirmative RF 3 on
2043:53 GC Okay RF 3 on Allegiant 864 is requesting why do you want them to hold on the evacuation they need an answer please
2044:04 RF RF 3 give me one second I'll contact the man on the ground

864 says "All Right" and waits 24 seconds before asking why they should delay.

Then, he waits another 16 seconds before asking again.

Another 47 seconds elapse until the end of this info.

That's a long time to wait if something is happening in the cabin.
