If you want to have any chance at all of understanding this you probably need to listen to all 250+ episodes of the ‘opposing bases’ podcast. Those ATC guys love TLAs.

That last sentence of yours is a doozy! Using an acronym to describe a love of acronyms. I’d be grouchy if I wasn’t so amused, well done and have a nice day!

Isn't TLA technically an initialism though? I'm still grouchy!

the NAS is ridiculously full of acronyms, but thankfully most are not three letters, which at least gives us a chance at remembering them ;)
