For the airline passengers,
I really want your plane to leave so your pilot will stop asking me when they can go. As a tower controller, I do not wake up every days a think you myself “I really hate that one specific airline flight today. Let’s delay them so much”

Dear pilots,
“Descending through 5000” is not a position report. What direction are you from my location? How far? Why does this have to be a game of twenty questions?

For the pilots,
We can’t give you PIREPs if we don’t get them 🤔
