Why not follow my three point plan when doing GMP?

T Think
I Inhale
T Transmit

If you like the above, you may also find this useful on GMC:

L Look out!
A Assess
B Bearing
I Instruction
A Act!

Finally, Departure control depends upon plenty of:

M Mashalling
I Ideal order
N Nicotine
G GO GO GO!
E Exhale

On the orginal thread (!)

I have now read the LHR booklet - probably first time ever... Oh - all right - read to the first page to where it says (in bold) you are to be ready before calling for clearance.

That said, the last few days have called a bit early, was given ATC, and then asked if fully ready. Said will be in 1 / 2 minutes, and either sent to ground, or asked to call back fully ready. Thank you to those controllers - it really does make our life easier...
