what is the origin of the phrase "coming down".
Probably the US
As a non American flying domestic in the US, every day I chuckle at the rubbish spoken on the radio.
"comin down" is common for a transponder code.
"Like to go on request for FLxxx" when simply "request FLxxx" would be much quicker.
"best forward speed" cracks me up every time.
"climb to and maintain" is my fave, like we are going to climb to 7000' and then just keep on climbing????
