When descending at 270kts and 4000fpm into Baghdad again on another lovely, gin-clear day and the American ATC (bless 'em!) ask you to stop descent at 5000', come back to min speed and hold over the scariest part of the city do you
a) Agree, slow and configure (you're American)
b) Agree (you're civilian, you're convinced it's a stupid idea but are sure the military controllers wouldn't ask you to do anything inherently dangerous/daft)
c) Ask them, with a degree of incredulity, to say again (you're other coalition military)
d) Transmit "A wandering minstrel I.......Gale force 8 imminent....schnell schell kartofellkopf....Surf 28 Field in sight, switching" at 40 miles out, then chop to the sane australians on tower before the yanks can get another insane word in edgeways.. (you're another goddamn Brit)
SPHLC - who are these people of whom you speak?? As far as I am aware, NAV is an autopilot mode and the only "Eng" I know of was 50% of Chang and Eng Bunker, the touring Siamese twins of the early 1800s....
