Key Takeaways:

  • A pilot, flying Centurion 7RR, humorously noticed another aircraft, Bonanza 5JJ, on the same radio frequency.
  • The pilot was tempted to make a lighthearted radio transmission suggesting the two aircraft "connect."
  • Ultimately, the pilot decided against the joke to avoid any potential misunderstanding or "feud."

En route from TRK to RHV recently in Centurion 7RR, I found myself on the same center frequency as Bonanza — 5JJ!

I was really tempted to tell center:
“7 Romeo Romeo would like to connect with 5 Juliet Juliet.”

But I didn’t want to start a feud, so I bit my tongue and said nothing.
