==========================

overall preliminary impression - radio traffic is more informal than
formal - (note - just changing one word of a 'formal message' makes it
an 'informal message' imho) - we would have to see their radio SOP to
know exactly which words are supposed to be used EVERY TIME - ears get
used to hearing certain words in certain orders

probably the only 2 formal radio messages that everyone in the USA
understands is "shots fired" and "mayday mayday" or "mayday mayday
mayday"
