I'm all for friendlyness and sounding human on the radio, but that was a little absurd. |
I've been told I say "Hey" (which really comes out sounding like eh with my northern accent) before every single one of my calls, like,
"Eh ah socal approach Amflight XXXX 1,500 climbing 4,000 210 assigned"
Nobody ever said anything about it, and I didn't even realize it until I started flying on the west coast; the home of super enunciation. Forth Worth and Cleveland Centers never had any problems understanding me, but socal can't figure out what I'm saying with my accent down here eh.
