The Pilot's Lounge #10:Readbacks and Remedial Redemption - AVweb

Things have started to quietdown here in the Pilot's Lounge since the FAA came out with its nutty interpretive rule stating that pilots are perse negligent if they do not hear an air traffic control clearance accurately. There isa deep-seated anger at some portions of the FAA among pilots, but the shouting andarm-waving has stopped and the letter-writing to the FAA and to Congresspeople hasstarted. AOPA has waded into the fray as well, which is good to know. It is also nice toknow that a number of the FAA inspectors who are pilots, who fly regularly in the realworld and who visit the Lounge are pretty unhappy with the rule as well.
