Let's face it, does anyone get rescued on Delta's company frequency? ;)

Half the time I expect when someone throws a genuine emergency out on 121.5 the peanut gallery will all light up screaming that THEY'RE ON GUUUUAAAAARRRRRRDDDDDDD instead of realizing they should shut up and help the poor guy calling for it.

Nearly spit out my airplane coffee and biscoffs reading this. Good to know there are others in the industry on this forum who know about the guard police. Thanks for the laugh!

Fair point. The FAA or pilots might ignore you, but the ATC enthusiasts on Youtube will eventually hear you :)
