Question: when ATC tells us to resume our own nav. Would we just reply something like "Rodger" or should we also tack on our expected heading/nav (I imagine not since ATC telling us todo our own thing kinda infers that they are not concerned anymore?).
Great video! You covered a lot of important points that many people miss. Interesting sidebar - Roger is the old phonetic alphabet phrase for the letter ‘R’ and indicates the call was ‘Received’ or ‘Received and Understood’.
The letter of the latest ATIS or ASOS information. Every hour, the next letter is assigned, and saying you have (for example) "Information Bravo", it means you have listened to the automated weather from the closest airport to you, and that weather information ended with "advise you have information bravo". They change the weather info every hour and the letter designation you tell them shows when you last listened to the weather from their station. If the current weather is Delta and you have information Charlie, they will tell you to listen to the automated weather again, or may give you some of the info right then.
There is a lot of wrong phraseology in that sentence 😂 Hope you aren't serious... ("Giant Asian Hornet, Springfield Tower, descend 5000 feet, proceed direct BT59 (bravo tango five niner)" would be more correct)
