That's a good question as Eurocontrol recognises QNH as the correct
local barometric setting (they also state that it means Query: Newlyn
harbour). I thought the ICAO agreed with Eurocontrol on these things?

Actually, it's the other way round: Eurocontrol adheres to the ICAO
phraseology.

*From The ICAO Manual of Radiotelephony (ICAO Document 9432)

Glossary:
QNH: Altimeter sub-scale setting to obtain elevation when on the ground

Example:
Fastair 345, descend to 4000 feet, QNH 1005, transition level 50, expect
ILS approach runway 24

WTF are the Americans doing not using ICAO standards or is it just
Gig601 being wrong?
