Over and out not right either, it's Over or Out, never over and out.

Gulpers 11th May 2017 23:46

OVER− My transmission is ended; I expect a response.
OUT− The conversation is ended and no response is expected.
ROGER− I have received all of your last transmission. It should not be used to answer a question requiring a yes or a no answer.

If you have a cockpit with a Captain Oveur, co-pilot named Roger and engineer named Victor you have a formula for confusion: :sweat:

Now that was a funny film! "What's my vector, Victor?"


Funny how 'Roger' has hung over from an earlier phonetic alphabet; strictly speaking we should now say "Romeo"

Airplane II, Captain Oveur, Navigator Unger, First Officer Dunn. Unger said that technically Dunn was under Oveur, and I was over Dunn :jester:

Back in the mid-1960s at Ras Lanuf, Libya, the refinery and port comms systems were maintained by a Brit whose first name was Roger. Most of the port administrators and refinery supervisory staff were Americans, as were the port Pilots. They seemed very amused by Roger's British accent and on one occasion that we were in port (well, anchored to pick up the end of the pipeline) Roger was doing radio checks on the port VHF radio system for most of the day. Every time he called us or one of the other vessels in the vicinity, the Americans on board would respond with, "Roger-Roger, Roger", followed by loud guffaws of laughter.

We didn't see what was so funny about it (especially after the first ten or so times it happened) and I'm sure Roger wouldn't have been amused.

Just because I asked about lipstick you think you can call me Romeo?

Perhaps it would be unkind it was because everyone was sick of "Roger"ing you.

As long as you keep up the scourgeing and don't loosen the nipple clamps.

It’s Roger, out. Only TV progs and films say over and out. Out means the exchange is complete, no answer required.

The days of grammar have long since went!

BobClay 27th June 2018 10:33

Both my Granmas have long since gone … :eek:
