Flying with the wife.
Me: Skyhawk ##1, four miles south of the field, entering left downwind runway 22.
Other Pilot: N##2 crossing mid-field. I dont see you, do you have your lights on?
ME: We are all lit.
Wife: (over the intercom) That didn’t sound right.
Me: Just to clarify, the plane is lit, not the pilot.
Short Final…
Key Takeaways:
- A pilot's radio call about his aircraft's lights leads to a humorous misinterpretation of his response.
- When asked if his lights were on, the pilot's reply "We are all lit" prompted an amusing observation from his wife.
- The pilot quickly clarified his statement, ensuring it was understood that his plane, not he and his wife, was illuminated.
