ATC Knows Where Good Hushpuppies Are
« on: April 10, 2012, 08:43:02 PM »
My club took 6 planes from Raleigh Exec Sanford (TTA) to Goldsboro Exec (GWW). On the return flight an interesting conversation started up with Raleigh Approach on where to find the best Eastern NC BBQ.

Scanner misses controller's query, "Did y'all go somewhere together" right before the pilot replies "Went out for some Eastern NC BBQ".

I was in N8080A which was 3rd plane in trail. 3 more behind me.

I thought it was might friendly that the controller took a time out from directing jets to chat about the merits of BBQ restaurants Down East.  :-)

Some dead air removed, but I left in comm to aircraft not in our party just for flavor.

If you were looking for the best BBQ in NC you should have been heading to W03
I don't know what all this talk is about Goldsboro and Lexington is about.
