Essence of communication ...

Goal is communication...if it warms your heart to feel like calling yourself Experimental RV helps out, have at it.

Clarity and brevity are key components of good communications. My home field (Class D, FFZ Mesa AZ) is home to a large flight school, many RV's, two 'warbirds' groups, and CAF museum with flying B-17, C-47, B-25. A Class C only 10 miles away, with another large flight school. All inside the Class B 'veil'. Often the radio is a continuous stream of controller/aircraft traffic.
(Note - New USAF tanker, KC-46 (aka 767), started life labelled "EXPERIMENTAL" too. Would that make him "EXPERIMENTAL HEAVY"?))
