[FUNNY ATC] Pilot MAKES PASSENGER ANNOUNCEMENT on frequency!

There is. QRT (stop transmitting). P'raps even QRT GND for that extra zest.

[@johnopalko5223]

@@reynirheidbergstefansson2343 Yeah, but that presumes the controller and the pilot know Morse code and are familiar with the Q-signals. Not a problem if both are ham radio operators.

[@reynirheidbergstefansson2343]

They would need to know Morse and some Q signals, but they would not need to be hams. OTOH, the signal does exist, and now (free for the taking) the idea to flash it at a fumblethumbed pilot, be it by a controller or another pilot. You do know, right, that the first half of the Q signals is aeronautical? *Edit:* The big problem would be that tower signal lamps are not set up for morse, only steady/blinking colour signals. That leaves… what? Either "Stop" (steady red) or "Caution" (alternating red/green)?

Actually, I was on board of a flight from Amsterdam to Toronto ones, about 2 years ago. The Captain did his Passenger announcement and moments later he asked for pushback on the P.A. with the Cabin. The purser (probably) replied back on the P.A. that he was not certain if there was any ATC on board. The Captain then replied, I remember it vividly: "Well I ask Ground then!"

There are many like this. If your ever been a CFI giving dual instruction to a Student Pilot. It goes something like this: Student to instructor while holding mic button to transmit...."I Want To Taxi What Do I Say?

Still keying mic ...Ah Cessna You Can Taxi To Runway 32.

As told by mentour pilot in one of his videos, use your handheld mic for PA and the headset for RT. No confusion.

[@ZK-APA]

CapGyris my comment is in General terms, and not as a jab to the pilot in this video. And we are humans, we all make mistakes (myself included). So the best thing to do is the little things to minimise those

[@GyrisCap]

@@ZK-APA My comment was also meant in General Terms. Personally, one of the scariest days flying is when the hand mike is inop and you have to give all the announcements via the headset! The fear of doing it on the radio is always killing me! :-)

[@dxb8788]

I use much simple trick , ATC volume on low , PA volume on MAX , if I ever intend to make a PA on VHF1 I won't hear my voice back . The handheld mic isn't as clear as your 1000$ headset

[@hypotamoose1]

I was on this flight! It was delayed 2 hours and didn’t depart LAX until 2:30am. I did hear the pilot read this line for line to passengers as well, so I’m guessing he realized his mistake eventually. Lol

[@HeidiKohne]

@@KC_NZ Yes, there's a phone number that the ATC will give to the pilot that they have to call within a couple of days. By doing so, there can be a lot more detail given over an incident that happened. The pilot may not necessarily be in trouble, but often is, so it's kind of a dreaded thing to hear that over radio.

[@everythingisupsidedown6732]

Nobody: Random guy on the same frequency: thank you for the brief

[@AllanFolm]

I used to work certain radio equipment in the army. We had to manually engage our carrier wave before transmitting our signal, then disengage our carrier wave again. One night on an exercise, one of the other stations on our net (some germans) forgot to disengage his carrier wave, and kept transmitting a tone for the next 12 hours. Our log read "Still carrier wave from the germans" every half hour.

[@cannedheat300]

Two takeaways here: 1) the absence of any "uuuhhh" in the monologue, and 2) it was pretty concise. Others pilots should take note.

[@kisstune]

uuuhh ummm

I've been on a couple of red-eyes where the captain talks to us while we're still at the gate but about to pull back, and then after we landed.
