Title: so excited about climbing to 6000
Post by: keith on October 22, 2014, 09:41:25 PM
Heard this during my climb out today from Caldwell (KCDW). It does star one of my favorite N90 controllers (the guy who remembered a callsign from 25 years before when it was a Jetstar instead of a Falcon).

Cockpit video is here for those who prefer pictures with their sound: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hbWCObBBabA

Here's a clip of that NY controller in action from a few years ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TCG0s3hOm8k (also contains the Falcon/Jetstar bit)

Was that our man behind the mic?

He's alive and well, my friend :) I thought of you 2 seconds after he started working me on the freq today. I breathed a sigh of relief that he's still at it. He's still hurling copies of the 7110.65 on the fire to keep everyone warm at the TRACON. He doesn't instruct people to "climb and mantain" so much as "go ahead and mosey on up there to 6000 feet."

Reliving that old exchange made me smile tonight.  :-)  Love that guy.

Keith, is that you on the youtube clip from 2009--as a pilot?

Yes, was flying N582LP, a 172 at N07, had a shared arrangement with the owner who didn't get to fly it much.
