Default ATC accents

Have anyone of you had a problem with the accents of various ATC
chaps around the world?


We, at PanAm, didn't have all that much of a problem.


I deal with a lot of French Canadian accents, but I never have any trouble
understanding them. But that might just be because I grew up with them.

I heard a guy flying a Canadian reg plane with a thick hispanic accent the
other day, and I couldn't understand half of what he was saying, and he
seemed to be having trouble understanding the controllers. Fortunately it
was a good VFR day and so it didn't matter so much.

With M$, as far as I'm aware, the stupidity comes bundled with the software.
