I'm not perfect on the radio (no one is all of the time) but I've been noticing some situations happen time and again that I think are worth addressing... they are a few mistakes in our communications at non-towered airports that can lead to dangerous situations. They are easy to make but also easy to fix, so I think it's worth drawing some attention to them today so we can all try to make the skies a little safer!
