0:00.0 | Oscar Bravo approach, Echo Hotel, with you under the Big Apple Bravo. |
0:04.6 | Congratulations and welcome to Opposing Bases Air Traffic Talk, episode 200. |
0:08.9 | From the mystery of opposing bases to Naz Charkootery, this show will keep you out of deep cacaz with the FAA by providing above-average but not exceptional airport insight. |
0:18.0 | When departing VFR versus IFR, sign your radar contracts in the bosom of the Bravo, |
0:22.6 | depart on some bonus obstacle departure procedures, and you'll surely avoid getting lost in frequency land |
0:27.6 | with a menagerie of wisdom provided by AG and RH. |
0:30.6 | Be sure to correct your garbage phraseology and in an emergency, just launch some unquenchable flaming magnesium and ask for panic vectors |
0:39.0 | to get you on your heading schmetting. Once in cruise, tackle the autopilot, but if you want some |
0:44.3 | peace and quiet, make sure you climb into the center's airspace. They'll leave you alone, and they're |
0:48.2 | probably not listening to you anyway. In the silence, perhaps you can ponder the next chapter |

1:21.8 | faster. Of course, if the weather isn't great, you can always ask for special VFR. That'll |
1:26.4 | definitely buy you some time with the confounded controller |
1:28.6 | as you pucker up to avoid a number two on arrival. |
1:32.0 | Well, it's time to put the family in their box, |
1:34.2 | don your astronaut hats, grab an IMC soup sandwich, |
1:37.1 | and get ready for episode 200. |
1:39.1 | Can't wait for the pearls and nuggets and crumbs of wisdom you'll share. |
