My general rant: I will call them blended winglets, not Sharklets; There is no CEO, it's just simply put, an Airbus 319/320/321, or the 320NEO, 321NEO etc. I didn't land IN DAL, I landed AT DAL. On the other hand, I did land in Dallas.

Damn could be. Especially if a pilot fell for it. Controllers voices are very distinguishable when compared to a regular pilot or commoner.xX_SuperSic58_Xx wrote:Being Australian, also heard of this. Stupidity in the extreme.

Also how did he manage to communicate with 18 separate aircraft? Was this on some uncontrolled frequency?
