This is Charlie October Charlie Kilo 4-2-0 requesting to land on runway 69 Please confirm

[–] hddsx 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

There’s no such runway as 69. If you are looking for cardinal 069 that would be runway 7. Runway 69 would be equivalent to runway 690 deg.

Also, I think C-OCK420 is 1 character too long to be a valid Canadian tail number

Unless it’s a new pilot on the frequency, I don’t think you would spell out the waypoint. It’s probably more clear and concise to pronounce the word.

And better hope PUSSY is nowhere near this one:

While that is correct, it's not as funny.
