When Airline Pilots WON'T speak ENGLISH!!!

But since you are posting without a real identity, you probably only fly
Microsoft flight simulators, so it really does not matter what you are
posting.

It's comments like this that make airline captains not even want to share
some insight.

Even if I were to take your word that you actually are, your own comments
prove you are a 3rd rate captain flying for a 3rd rate airline and you have
a 3rd rate command of your first language. As such your opinions aren't
worth the bandwidth it took to transmit them.

I won't be back, u wannabe clowns! No go play with your Wi.

Don't let the door hit you on the arse....

Thank you. We thought it was only here in AZ, where a lot of aspiring
airline pilots come to put in time since there are so many
good-weather flying days here. Nothing worse than being in the pattern
at an uncontrolled airport and hearing, "FDVHUdscr Trafffick, Cessna
^%#s9, &&VSs, Gobbledegoop 1 mile, VFSDGXCxss, FDVHUdscr Traffick."

Huh? 1 mile WHERE? How do these people pass the oral exam? Do they
understand US? Do they care?

I'm sure that's true, and US pilots abroad should be able to communicate
clearly in languages spoken there, too.

meant their knowledge and command of ICAO terms.



For instance, the crew who were told to descend to 3,000' QNH 1018.
"Could we have that in inches please?"
OK, descend 36,000" 1018...

Suit yourself. You need a thick skin to play here. Credibility is not
something you get overnight.

as for the subject: I heard myself the worst things on the radio,
especially in Arizona from those German Lufthansa-students.

on the other hand: esp. in the US you hear phrases like "next report
$landmark", but the landmark is not on the chart and only locals are in
the know.

It helps to post with something else like a name like "hello" :-)
And it helps to use a decent newsclient and newsserver (my offer for
free usenet access is still valid; our newsserver is among the TOP1000.)

Ever heard of German corner? Rhine assumes the entie planet knows where it
is.
just for instance.

True, but if you ask they tell you how find it, radial and distance from
KRH, a bit easier than a landmark. ;-)

True again, but is easier to give a radial/distance from a VOR than
describe a Landmark

Not so easy to find if you are flying sans radio, though.

And then German corner is just used aa a short cut, not a reporting
point, if you don't know where it is they can clear you to KRH
