Short Final

October 27, 2003


A controller I know has his personal aircraft hangered at the local Muni airport. Facing his hangar is another that houses a Green Cessna 210. One day that Cessna came into his sector. My controller friend recognized the N number and the exchange follows...

Controller: N123, is that airplane painted green?

Pilot: Uh, yes. ...Why?

Controller: Just checking our new color radar.
