Just so folks know, the black button on top of the control stick is called a 'push-to-talk'. When it's pushed, the airplane's radio transmits whatever you say. LOTS of things have been said over the radio that weren't meant to be.

I read about a fighter pilot during WW2 who screwed up, and no, he didn't crash, but he cussed a blue streak, not knowing he was still "On the air."
He says "He's really (bleeped) up."
Tower says "Give your call sign, whoever made that transmission."
Pilot radios back, "I ain't THAT (bleeped) up."

hehheh, I know an anecodte, hard to say if is true or not. A plane of an south-american line was getting ready to take-over, but stopped the procedures, and the piot turned on the mic to talk to the passengers:
"Ladies and gentlemen, for technical reasons, our take-off will be delayed 30 minutes. Sorry about the inconvenience"
After 30 minutes, the scene repeat itself: the plane went to the take-off procedures, and the pilot: "Ladies and gentlemen, for technical reasons, our take-off will be delayed 30 minutes. Sorry about the inconvenience".
After another 30 minutes, new procedures, and the pilot, not knowing the radio was on:
"Now [bleep] it!"
And took off.
It was not a calm flight for the passangers.

finaly new page!! woo hoo!!...any way i have a world band radio and can hear the local airpots raido from plane to tower...i sware once i herd (dont know if it was the piolet or the tower) but loud and clear some one asked "fuk sakes did you have to let that go in here?!" the silence for 2 min and back to normal....but some one sounded very serious and focsed after that
Sorry, the technical stuff is almost done. In panel 4, Chucky is replying to the instructions given to him by the control tower, but he adds, "Holy shit Ian! I did it! Yes!!" while the mic is still active. Notice his left thumb is pressing the black putton on top of the stick, then in panel 5 he lets go with a stunnded look, realizing what he's done.

I've done something like that before. Just happened to one of my coworkers not long ago. She answered an officer then commented loudly that he needed to learn to speak into his mic. I told her she needed to take her foot off the pedal XD Not a good thing. He was a little peeved but we could hear him for the rest of the night!
Congrats on a great landing Chucky! X3

yeah i got some stories about hot mic accidents, a few of them that are priceless, one the IP was having a tough day with the student and while he was keyed up, he said "are you trying to give me a heart attack?", tower replied "IP having heart attack are you really that old or is the newbie scaring you?"...silence till i said,"the aircraft is still up, hes still kicking" lets just say it we were rough on the old dog when he got back...
