| Overheard in IFR Magazine‘s “On the Air” |
I was on V16 just off New York’s JFK Airport at 6,000 feet when New York departure called.
Departure:
“Mooney One Victor Sierra, say airspeed.”
Me:
“One hundred seventy-five knots.”
Departure:
“Bonanza Five Eight Two, say speed.”
Bonanza:
“One five five.”
Departure:
“Can you go any faster?”
Bonanza:
“Negative.”
Departure:
“Mooney One Victor Sierra, reduce speed to one five zero.”
Me:
“No Problem. I’ll slow it down for the Bonanza.”
Unknown Voice:
“Ouch. That’s gonna leave a mark.”
