Short Final

Last Friday, we departed Detroit City VFR northbound in my SR22 for some sightseeing and requested traffic advisories from Selfridge Approach. Shortly thereafter, we heard this exchange:

Selfridge Approach:
“Cessna XXX, traffic at one o’clock and two miles. A whacko.”

Then a brief pause.

Selfridge:
“Correction: That’s a ‘Waco.'”

Cessna XXX:
“Maybe he’s both!”
