Do ATC read forum posts?

[Harry White]

If so I would like to say sorry to the guy at San Luis at 9.30 PST, my first attempt at online flying, doing the first flight suggested on the pilot resources page, get up fine, cock up first contact by not stating which information I have, give wrong direction of position to airfield, then too top it off, after landing, which was the only thing that went right, my internet connection took a hit, his voice went all jumpy so I asked him to repeat last and it wasn't to me and then my connection went fully and I dc'd just to top it all off.

literally couldn't of gone any worse. so yeah sorry dude.

Hi Harry,
I am not ATC, but they do read the forums.
First and foremost, always remember that this is a learning and educational environment - so making a few rookie mistakes is built into the price!!
