I have heard some really stupid shit on the radio ,and every time I say it promise myself to do better next time, I really must be pretty easy going, most of us are out to enjoy the sky and if it isn't always as sharp as it could be well hopefully the culprit will do better next time , and hopefully my little transgressions will be forgiven as well . not to say that truly life threatening stuff should go unchecked, that is a different kettle of fish altogether!

along with most of the other replys, one thing that bothers me a whole lot is when someone announces their position in the pattern, they aren't even close to where they should be. When there engine decides to go, they have no chance to make the field. How were they trained?
