Overheard in IFR Magazine‘s “On the Air”

En route from San Antonio, Texas to Kerb Wille, I let my 19-year-old private pilot daughter run the radios:

daughter:
“Center, Piper Five Six Six Seven Romeo.”

Center:
“Piper Six Seven Romeo, go ahead.”

daughter:
“Request flight following.”

Center:
“Piper Six Seven Romeo, state vour location, altitude, and destination.”

[long pause]

daughter:
“Uh, San Antonio.”

[another pause]

Center:
“Piper Six Seven Romeo, when you figure out where you are and where you want to go, give us a call back.”
