ACR X CAPT USED PROFANITY WITH ATC.

Narrative

ACR X INBOUND TO PBI (ON APCH CTL) NOTICED A GREAT DEAL OF RADIO TFC; AND WHAT APPEARED TO BE VERY ABUSIVE VERBAL COM BY APCH TO SEVERAL INBOUND ACFT. NONE DIRECTED TOWARD OUR FLT. ON DEP; ACR X CTLR WAS DOING NORMAL JOB OF HANDLING LARGE AMOUNT OF TFC; WHICH INCLUDED ACR; CORPORATE AND GOV ACFT. NOTICED A DIFFERENT VOICE CUT IN AND MAKE SHARP CAUSTIC COMMANDS. AFTER SEVERAL SEQUENCES OF THE OTHER CTLR CUTTING IN; IT APPEARED OR SOUNDED LIKE HE TOOK OVER. BEAR IN MIND THERE WAS A LOT OF TFC AND ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS; EITHER THE CTLR OR OTHER WERE CUTTING ONE ANOTHER OUT. WE WERE CLRED TO 10000 FT AND LEVEL. I AM AWARE WE SHOULD HAVE A CLRNC TO HIGHER AND FREQ CHANGE TO CTR. (DOESN'T TAKE A ROCKET SCIENTIST TO FIGURE THIS OUT.) CTLR WAS STILL VERY BUSY AND VERY CAUSTIC; BUT I TOLD FO (PNF) NOT TO CALL JUST YET; TRYING TO AVOID CUTTING SOMEONE OUT. FINALLY; DEP CALLED US AND SAID WE HAD NOT ANSWERED 2 PREVIOUS CALLS. FO SAID WE DIDN'T HEAR THEM AND CTLR WAS AGAIN CAUSTIC. AFTER 30 PLUS YRS OF FLYING; I PICKED UP THE MIKE AND CALLED THE CTLR AN 'ASS;' THAT IS THE FIRST PROFANE WORD I HAVE EVER USED ON THE RADIO. (CTLR SAID I WAS TOO!) AFTER CHANGE TO CTR; I ASKED FOR PBI PHONE NUMBER. ON THE NEXT DAY; I SPOKE TO SOMEONE AT PBI AND DISCUSSED THE SIT. I ASKED HER TO LISTEN TO THE TAPES AND TOLD HER I KNEW THE CTLRS WERE VERY BUSY (OVERLOADED) BUT I FELT THEY WERE RUDE.
