Dear friends and followers, welcome back to my channel and to a great video about the famous ATC call out "ROGER/WILCO"
We'll be looking at how pilots or ATC came up with Roger, when to use it? If it is still in use? And most importantly it's meaning!
EVERYONE knows pilots use the phrase “roger that” when they’re in the air - but have you ever given any thought as to why?
The reason goes back to some of the very first flights.
A pilot needs support from staff on the ground when flying, but when the first plane was flown by the Wright brothers in 1903, there was no such thing as radio communication.
According to Wonderful Engineering, during Orville and Wilbur Wright’s first flight, they used flares, hand signals and coloured paddles to communicate while the plane was in the air.
As technology advanced, pilots began to use morse code to communicate, and then in 1915 air-to-ground voice transmission became possible.
To confirm a message had been received, they would signal the letter “R” (for “received”) in morse code.
When communication switched to radio, pilots carried on using the letter “R” to confirm a message but started to use the word “roger”.
As not all pilots speak English, it was decided by the International Telegraph Union in 1927 that “roger” would be an easier command than “received”.
The term then went on to become well-used as part of the international aviation language.
Pilots also used it during World War II, which further cemented it in history.
Although “Romeo” is now used instead of roger in the phonetic alphabet, “roger that” continues to be used widely around the world by pilots.
That’s not all. Pilots have an entire special language that they must speak, whatever their nationality.
But see more in the video!
Thank you very much for your time! I hope you enjoy this video!
Wishing you all the best!
Your "Captain" Joe

I heard Wilco from Jester AI on some DCS videos
That ATC from “Airplane” 😂😂LMAO
Hear those words quite often in movies. I always thought it did have something to do with the military. Love learning stuff like this.
Two years ago I went to Greece and me and my sister went before my parents. We ended up staying with my grandma for three weeks and I spent a lot of time siting around watching your videos. This was before my senior year of high school and I was deciding on what career to pursue. I watched probably 35 of your videos straight and decided right then and there I wanted to be a pilot. I’m almost done with getting my private pilot license and I just wanna say; thank you for posting these videos. I wouldn’t have chosen the career of a lifetime without them. I absolutely love what I’m studying and couldn’t be happier. These videos are the reason why I’m where I am today, and I can’t thank you enough.
I watch this just to hear you explain something calmly. You make being a pilot look so much fun. Keep up the great work, I love seeing your flight insight videos. Share more fun plane areas that the average consumer doesn’t experience! Also how does a plane manage to fly or gain attitude to begin with? Sometimes flying still seems like magic to me
Hello Captain Joe great work, very informative videos, you're really making my Dispatch course easier.
Cool video. Im in the process of getting my privet pilots license and its cool to hear about things like this.
Nice video! I’ve been asking this question for a while! Thanks for this video captain!

Great! Love your channel! I used to work as ground crew and used the modern phonetic alphabet so never got to use ‘Roger’ - though we used to have an aircraft last two identifiers RL - but as a lightweight 737 we nicknamed her Rubber Legs rather than Romeo Lima 😁

Who would have guessed I would be saying that in morse code when I used this face .-.
is that a green screen or you were actually at the pool?
Great video Captain Joe. I really wish you made a video with Mentour Pilot.
Always helpful thanks captain
Never clicked on a notification this fast? Roger-that! Now you did.
You misspelled Saigon. BTW my dad also flew to Vietnam as a Boeing pilot. But it was a B-52.
Dear Joe. Thank you very much for another great video! :-) I ask you again to make a video about how to become a pilot. There are so many different ways. You don't have to start with ATPL. You can also start with a glider oder a microlight. I think this would be very interesting for all the enthusiasts out there.
What a lovely backdrop.

Great video! I really enjoy all your videos a lot. Coming from an aircraft maintenance background, it’s great to have an insight on many details. I had a tough time understanding one subject and I thought you could help us with a great video. You make major subjects so interesting. So my question was about INS (Inertial navigation system) or INRS (inertial navigation and reference system). I think your viewers would find it really interesting to know how an airplane understands its position when it’s flying. Hope to watch a video on this. Thanks again!!

wonderful information! also, have you ever thought of doing a live stream?
Anyone here remembers the 90's PC games from Sierra called Space Quest? There was a lead playable character called ROGER WILCO. I have played the game like 25 years ago for the last time and had no notion about its aviation meaning, but now I get it in full extent :-D.
Amazing Explanation! Great video!
Our daughter together with a girl friend just cruised Vietnam by motorcycles, from Saigon/ Ho-Chi- Minh to Hanoi , over 2500 km, and also using the old Ho-Chi-Minh road for several 100km wilderness .. great and beautiful country .. such an adventure a pilot won't encounter so soon.. now they are in NZ for a few months.Btw, Quantas obviously was the most favorite airline on their ways.
Another great video!
