The aircraft that has the other on it's right shall give way.
I was asked by a colleague why is the above statement phrased as it is. Why not just say the one on the left shall give way or the one on the right has the right of way.....both ways it has the meaning. Apparently someone took 20 years to figure out why!!!! So does anyone know why such a phrasing?
I have posted this question on the professional pilot training forum too.
Thanks
