I am always amused by corrections to grammar, apostrophe abuse, spelling, use of acronyms and phraseology which is weird as I left school at 16 so have no English mastery whatsoever.
However, it has occurred to me in aviation that some errors are allowed and even encouraged.
For instance, “I can’t request PPR today as I lost my medical and can’t legally fly.’
Both statements are incorrect but I have yet to see a pedant comment on “lost my medical”.
