Maybe something in there is picking up the guard frequency. People make weird noises on that frequency all the time, including animal noises and screaming.

- Scoundreller 4y agoThat wouldn’t go to the Public Announcement signal though.
- rthomas6 4y agoNot on purpose, but there are YouTube videos of pilots accidentally doing in flight announcements on guard. Maybe there's some plane error that is sometimes causing the error the other way around.
- Scoundreller 4y agoI know Unites Airlines used to make its pilot’s atc communications available on “channel 11”, but I think that all stopped post 9/11.
- philipps 4y agoPretty sure it was channel 9. I used to listen to that all the time.
- repiret 4y agoI’ve heard it long after 9/11, but not in several years now.
- robbiet480 4y agoI was on a 777 SFO-ORD a few months ago that still had Channel 9 available
- copperx 4y agoI loved that so much. And it was enabled well after 9/11.
- z9znz 4y agoIs the guard freq available (to receive from) at flight altitude? At least one of the reports supposedly involved the entire flight time.
