Via LiveLeak.com, here’s the audio of a Delta pilot losing it at an Atlanta ground controller on July 25, 2014:
Sheesh, seriously?
The amazing part here is that there are plenty of controllers that can come across as having an attitude (after all, it is a high-stress job), but this guy couldn’t be any calmer and mellower about the whole situation, and even laughs it all off.
Still not quite as good as Air China 981…

I think you are all a buch of anti-American liberal pussies.
found it interesting that ATL uses Dixie for the 4th letter of the alphabet - when i worked ops at SFO the word was Delta, but i can see that would be confusing at the home of DL - any other airports that do something similar?
wow seems like the ntsb and homeland security has double standards!seems to me they need to focus more on airline & airport employee's has a threat to national security!if i argue with a ticket agent over additional charges added on to an already paid ticket i am told if i dont want to pay they will refund my ticket and sell my seat to someone else!if i question screening procedures from a ill-mannered un-skilled,rude tsa agent,the swat team is called in to arrest me.if i politely argue with a passenger seated in aisle 16 b who is putting his addtional baggage in 72 c in they over-head bin designated for me and leaves no space for me then i am thrown off the plane and asked to take a later flight.this plane should have been sent back to the gate and the captain should have been furloughed!seems to me now a days i am more worried about the irrational behavior of airline and airport employee's than i am of my fellow passengers.
@Mark Yes, commenting on specific behavior of SOME members of a group is far less offensive than refusing to fly "Ching Chong Airlines." Note the supposedly "offensive" comment by David was saying that he was blown away by the ignorance of "some" Americans. Not ALL Americans. He was shocked that people in America still think its acceptable to use such phrases in a public forum (just because you have the 1st Amendment right to say something doesn't mean its acceptable to do so)Jay's comment was pretty ignorant so it wasn't crazy to say one was blown away by ignorance. Just like it would be OK for you to be shocked at the foul, perhaps even "animalistic" behavior (that isn't a one time occurrence) of SOME Chinese people in light of the poopcident yesterday.
@Jay @Mark , you guys blame other non-native speakers is nothing to do with this damn harsh Delta pilot. Thanks for Lucky's comparison between apple and orange. Some arrogant Americans never admit or apologize for their own faults , that's a fu***ing good altitude either.
