flying in Argentina
Arturo,
By the way, I hope you don't think I'm picking on you, I am just interested in why a country would require Spanish fluency if ATC was fluent in English. (I used to live in Asunción, Paraguay so the requirement wouldn't be unreasonably difficult for me. ) -- Dallas |

... So why do you have a law that requires fluent English speakers to become fluent in Spanish? I don't think they require you so speak spanish if you're flying an N-numbered plane. It looks like that's a requirement to fly an LV-numbered plane, and to participate (solo) in the tour. From the website: You can choose between following packages: 1.. Solo-Flight (only for Spanish speaking) 2.. the led "Classic Trip"(14 days) 3.. the led "Special Trip" (21Tage) 4.. Individually package 1.Solo Flight As a condition are Spanish knowledge so that you will be able to radio operations as communicate and understand without problems. To operate Lima Victor (LV) registered airplanes you need an acknowledgment of your JAA License for that again Spanish knowledge are necessary. |

Try get a taxi to a hotel or find some fuel for your airplane in some rural
Mexican airport by speaking only ICAO level 4 English.

The ICAO has established that English is the de-facto language of international air traffic control. The ICAO will require as of March of 2008, all pilots flying internationally and all Air Traffic Controllers must pass the ICAO level 4 language standards for English proficiency. To be assessed at ICAO Level 4 English or above, a pilot or air traffic controller must achieve Level 4 in all six of the ICAO skill areas: Pronunciation, Structure, Vocabulary, Fluency, Comprehension and Interactions. So why do you have a law that requires fluent English speakers to become fluent in Spanish? GeorgeC |

Blue skies! -- Dan Ford (By the way, the GA airport in Ushuaia runs north-south, in a part of the world where the wind blows strong east-west, given that it has the whole world around to get up speed. It's a hoot watching the light planes on final.) |
