Loved it when somebody finally said, "Settle down, Captain Happy". biggrin

(Delta Pilot and Tower get into argument. Skip to 1:50 to hear the snarky bits.)

IMO, personality and radio comms don't mix.

Yeah, I've done this enough times that I got it all, too. The Delta pilot was WAY out of line. Answer should have been, "Tower, we are on Mike, I believe. Thank you." What a whiney biotch.

Wonder if the Delta captain was a navy "aviator" at one time? Funny as hell to hear the third voice pop up with Captain Happy.

"I don't like your attitude"?? What, is he the ATC's boss or customer or something? Geez.
Props to the ATC guy for never losing his cool or missing a beat, but I could hear he wanted to crack up after the Capt Happy remark.

That was funny. As said above, the controller was trying to hold hi laughter in.

Pity the guys that get rostered with that pilot. I bet he has a reputation.
