At a busy local airport one sunny Saturday flight instructors were hopping in and out of different aircraft all day long:
Unidentified pilot: Montgomery Ground, Cessna, er, Cessna … wait … who am I today?
[pause]
I’ll have to call you back.Ground: Roger, call back when you know who you are.
Short Final…
Key Takeaways:
- A busy flight instructor at a local airport momentarily forgot which aircraft they were flying while communicating with ground control.
- The instructor had to request a pause in communication to identify their current Cessna.
- Ground control acknowledged the unusual situation, advising the instructor to call back once they knew "who they were."
