ATC Issues A place where pilots may enter the 'lions den' that is Air Traffic Control in complete safety and find out the answers to all those obscure topics which you always wanted to know the answer to but were afraid to ask.

Thanks folks

Thanks folks

May I just offer my thanks, as driver of metal tube, to you bunch of morons in ATC

Last night I was given direct routings, which you clowns have to arrange with so many different sectors, so, whoever was working Madrid upper, Bordeaux upper in the Belen - Ren sector and finally London Dikro Avant.

Folks I really appreciate all the directs: it saved me close 1 tonne of fuel on 2 sectors.

Great job, I owe you a beer or several.

I can only imagine that English isn't your first language, either that or you can fly an aeroplane but have no social skills at all.

You must be a real hoot to fly with.

You're most welcome, sir.

Why don't you give us details of your future flights and we will endeavour to excel in our wonderful service? I highly recommend the scenic route which I'm sure my colleagues will be most happy to guide you along after your kind comments.

C'mon, guys, be fair, there are SMILEYS present.
Intended as a term of endearment, rather than derogatory, I'm sure.

Talk about biting the hand that feeds you. RSS is a switched on bloke. He thanks you for a job well done (and how often does that happen) in what is meant to be a humorous fashion and the Swanwick Mafia jumps in with both abusive feet.



English humour is obviously no longer a thing to be laughed at

@Lon More & left bass,
Nice ,but you may expect negative comments very soon .
I may live without it but it seems that some other people couldn't live without doc 4444.

Lon More, a Scottish dude told me that one while I was in training on the island. Hilarious.
