I'd appreciate a PM from one or both techies on this flight today.

No tower at AYQ fellas though there is the Cagrs guy there.

Was today the last day for QF to operate SYD-AYQ before Jetstar take over the service?

This must be the Pprune equivalent of "go numbers"! Everyone else wants to listen in!

'TL' now that's funny:ok:

I had to check that AYQ was the 'rock'. Wasn't it known as Connellan Airport?
Do radio waves reach that far out?:)

Wow, must be incredibly important to warrant a post on pprune in attempting to contact fellow professional 'techies'.

"I'm Capt Claret of pprune fame and I would appreciate a PM from one of the techies on VA 1628"

Who knows.... it be for a compliment, a criticism, a clarification or even an invitation for a beer.

My money is that "Capt Claret of pprune fame" is not impressed about something due to the use of the word 'appreciate'.

Whatever happened, I am trying to imagine him turning to the FO (or Captain) and saying:

"By golly son! Did you see that, well we need to talk to those boys and as soon as we land I'll be straight on pprune to ask if they'd appreciate giving me a PM!"

Since we don't have a regulator worth the name and nobody will talk to ATSB, its regulation by Pprune.

Go on kids, confess to Claret.

Perhaps Claret wishes to ask one of the 'techies' out on a date?
You know some of those airwave voices are very very sexy :E
