Pre-takeoff checklist
Bob Gardner's book SAY AGAIN PLEASE just arrived so I'm eager to dive in. My radio speak pretty much sucks so I'm looking forward to some help.

Trivia question for the OP (actually John too) but why do we say "say again" instead of "repeat?"
Nope. It's a carryover from military radio communication, where "repeat" has a unique and special meaning - please fire another artillery barrage. It's not supposed to be used in any other context.

I always liked "Fire for Effect" and watch things turn to junk.

Excellent book. I think I am due for a re-read on that one and on "Stick and Rudder". Those are what got me through my breaks when jury duty turned into a 17-day trial back in 2009.
17 day trial.... Oh Please do tell...
Heh heh heh. "Team Bravo, this is fire control. Please say your coordinates."
"Yeah, right!" (you never send them your own position, lest they get the two messed up.)
