ATC Fast Talk Simulator

One thing that causes a lot of stress for new pilots is a fast-talking air traffic controller. Given that we tend to laugh more at things that cause us stress and not things we hold sacrosanct, you can see why pilots would find this topic funny. Visit: www.rodmachado.com to learn more.

Best thing I ever heard on Clearance Delivery was when a controller rattled through a pilot's clearance was when the pilot asked the controller if any of that was important. The controller said - "Yes it is important, that is your clearance!". The pilot then said - "Would you please give that to me again, except this time please say it as though it is important.".

Pretty sure I have heard that controller.

Rod is hillarious , wish I'd had him as a flight instructor back in the 80's, mind you I'd be laughing too much at talk to ATC :)

I believe controllers moonlight as auctioneers!

So if Taylor Swift Fans are Swifties.... Rod is my Taylor Swift. So that makes me a what? A Macha-dee-oh.... I'll work on that. Ha ha. I am 100% sure I was there in the tent, going to OSH late 80's and made it a point to catch Rod every chance I got.
