TAMInated Posted July 28, 2011 Posted July 28, 2011 The viper rolling off the runway and several beers in my belly reminded me of the RSU comments at pilot training. A few that I remember: TTYNR: Take that, you naughty runway WAE: Welcome aboard, ensign BKIH: Burger King is hiring NAFOD: No apparent fear of death
Hercster Posted July 28, 2011 Posted July 28, 2011 Seemed like every flight, not mine of course ;) IRC: Incorrect radio call HF: High flare IF: Incomplete flare FTD: Firm touchdown And my favorite EBOR: Excessive Breathing on Radio

SocialD Posted July 28, 2011 Posted July 28, 2011 IRT: Italian Radio Transmission WAS: Welcome aboard sailor LFALOW: Look for another line of work

HU&W Posted July 29, 2011 Posted July 29, 2011 EPFOR = Entered pattern for opposite runway MILF = Made Impressively Late Flare
waltopfor Posted July 29, 2011 Posted July 29, 2011 IAEBG= It aint easy being green, a dude in our flight sounded like kermit on the radio.
matmacwc Posted July 29, 2011 Posted July 29, 2011 Yuck it up, these are now done electronically through TIMs and attached to the gradesheets, permanently. 1
HossHarris Posted July 29, 2011 Posted July 29, 2011 SLAW - sounds like a woman (also acceptable for b-course prenaming)

Wizard (XL Aux) can barely keep the electricity on half the time. I doubt they'll be getting the internets or TIMS out there soon.
Guest Posted July 29, 2011 Posted July 29, 2011 I remember sitting #1 when an Eagle landed at Vance. The RSU came on the radio (I recognized the voice of a check section FAIP who thought he was the shit) and said "F-15 on short final go around!" and the dude came back with "If you can shake the stick, you can take the jet..." and he landed. I laughed my ass off the entire sortie after that one.
amcflyboy Posted July 29, 2011 Posted July 29, 2011 (edited) I was working the RSU as the recorder one day, and a fellow classmate was on her pattern sortie, and would NOT request closed. Instead she just flew the entire box pattern(no STS here). The controller told me to write down WU/S for her callsign(It meant Wuss). Edited July 29, 2011 by amcflyboy

Who cares? I don't think anyone is going to be delayed into the FLUG/IPUG because some booger-eating FAIP wrote a pseudo-witty comment about the flare on a guy's pattern solo in T-6s.
