Air Traffic Control Nightmare

[Steve6443]

Hi guys, was flying this afternoon and, whilst flying close to EDDG (Muenster / Osnabrueck International Airport), heard the following exchange.... Have included subtitles.... No doubt the PIC had some explaining to do once he (finally) arrived at his destination.....

He's possibly still taxying....

That's superb radio manner by UK standards.

Did he say he was taking lessons at one point? Perhaps that explains part of it.

Did he say he was taking lessons at one point? Perhaps that explains part of it.

The question is: which part of it? Busting Delta Airspace without contacting the Tower? Establishing on a 4 mile final without contacting the tower? Backtracking along the runway without permission? Getting lost on an airport which has a similar layout as, say, Bristol?

Although he did say "continue training", he also said "we", which to me indicates more than one person onboard - which means I would also have expected the FI to be with him.......

Did break up a relatively uneventful flight, giving me something to chuckle about though.......
