Why do pilots say “Roger that”?
- cmurf 8y agoTwo of these must be Australian variations, as a U.S. pilot I've never come across "Roger that" - just "Roger". And never have come across "affirm" only "affirmative". Examples are in ICAO standard phraseology, FAA ORDER JO 7110.65, and the Aeronautical Information Manual.
- webmonkeyuk 8y agoInteresting. Thanks for sharing. I've definitely heard affirm from pilots in the UK
