Short Final
Overheard in IFR Magazine‘s “On the Air” I heard this blooper on Albuquerque Center frequency: Airliner:“Albuquerque, Big Bird One Two Three level at 280 and would like to continue climb.” Center:“I show 280 as your requested altitude.” Airliner (without hesitation) :“Me too. I’ll have to ask my captain about that.” (The subject was dropped.) Art Friedmanvia e-mail

Center:
"I show 280 as your requested altitude."
Airliner (without hesitation) :
"Me too. I'll have to ask my captain about that."
