Use “Wilco” often. Traffic Calls - Use “looking/searchin,” or “Traffic in Sight” Myths: “I don’t want to get into trouble, so I don’t talk to ATC” - WRONG “I thought I was doing you a favor” - Nope “ATC is too busy to talk to me” - Sometimes, but not likely Common Questions: How far out do I call the tower? When contacting Approach with a request, should I simply state: XYZ approach, the tail number, and stop? OR immediately go for the full request?
