You guys should have known that I could win the battle of acronyms hands down. Consider the following METAR from Stillwater:
KSWO 300253Z AUTO 09006KT 10SM CLR 19/11 A2999 RMK AO2 SLP149 T01890106 53007
And that's just a small one, let's talk about aircraft speeds, appropriately called "v-speeds"
VA VS0 VS1 VREF VR VFE VLE VLO VX VY VNO VNE VMC VYSSE... and many more
Even NOTAMS are mostly accronyms and abbreviations:
KSWO RWY 35 REIL OTS UFN
Trust me, I could go on for quite a while, but I think I'll just let this sit for a bit... you people should honestly know better than to challenge Captain Dorkus.
For added measure, I'll throw in just a few more:
MOCA DH MDA ORCA MEA PT ILS VOR ADF GPS RNAV TCAS RADAR PD MOA RA TWR CLRDEL Etc...
And with that, I'm going to bed. Oh, and if anyone can figure out how to control the space-time continuum (I'm looking at you Phynerk) and can figure out how to teleport me to Conway, just let me know...
