If you have never heard asian pilots over a radio you haven't lived.

"Seminole XXX So and so Tower, what are your intentions following the ILS approach?"
"Re rant a tucha and a go"
"WHAT???"
"Tucha and a go"

Imagine that going on for a few more minutes and then... OH NO GODZILLA!!!! They love that sh!t.:D

I'm astonished to hear that you might be considered a Yeller by anyone. You? NOOOOOOOOOOOOO.........foreign studs. Most have above average skills that I've seen (Italians) but the language can be frustrating. Of course I don't think I'd do any better flying in Italy speaking Italian.


After all, I'm an Aggie Marine. Gig 'Em and Semper Fi.
I know ... the revelation must shock you. Me?? A SCREAMER ??!!??

But, yes, ahhhhhhh .... Aggie/USMC .... it 'splains so much, Lucy.... :)


MILITARY:
The best
foreign STUDs I had ..... (drum roll)!! ARGENTINIANS.

The worst ......... !!! : KUWAITIS !! (good party boys, however. Big rolls of cash)

AIRLINES:
The best:
Japanese STUDs ... everything memorized; like machines .... until anything went "wrong" that wasn't on a checklist. Then it was like a Chinese (or Japanese) fire drill.

The worst: Iranians .... kicked them out of a simulator --- had to teach 'em what a shower and soap was before they could come back. :) "Taught" them figuratively, not literally, of course.

I recall a story in the ITU at HT-18 where a Saudi student had had enough and simply decided that "Allah had the controls."

Turn off the heat!

check out this youtube ... no video, but listen to the comm between the instructor and sna. only reason I put this in the tbs section is because I could definitely see this being an AI and IO if we were flying planes at TBS. Priceless.

OMG. At first I wanted to reach into my speakers and beat the ever living sheet out of that instructor but then I was laughing to damn hard I couldn't see through the tears.

That was hilarious. Good one.

Technically not a SNA, it's a foreign student in Air Farce T-38 land, funny....and old...nonetheless.

I was the Flight Commander of the student in the Columbus T-38 video when he was at Moody flying AT-38s after graduating SUPT.

He had a serious problem with his English language comprehension skills all the way through SUPT, not just in this incident. It was a known issue that went all the way through the diplomatic channels...and the decision was made to press him through IFF to see what would happen. I had to provide the Japanese advisor on his progress frequently.

Turns out he passed...did fine, and was a decent pilot to boot.
