News: The Funny Language We Pilots Speak!

Posted by Matthew Justice on Dec 11, 2007

Pilot Radio ...

Plastic Pilot Blog has posted an article about aviation abbreviations and how they are used. I guess if you can understand the sentence below then you are doing good! I knew of the abbreviations except for "COPI".

“When the TCAS issued an RA, the PF applied the SOP and initiated a descent. Even if they were at low FL descending to the ILS, there was no risk of CFIT. The WX, as announced by the ATIS, was CAVOK and the flight was VMC. After that, the PIC asked the COPI to do a PA to make the PAX feel better.” Make sense?

See Blog posting (link below) for the answers to all of the acronyms and abbreviations above.
