One peculiarity is that you will not be given landing clearence unless you yourself declare that you are "Ready to Land". This means that basically you are established and gear is down (with three greens!). On many occasions it will slip your mind to declare such, and the ATCO will excitedly ask you at around 500ft if you are "Ready to Land" after which you will get your landing clearence.
I also find decent into Domodedovo quite eratic, often being kept high until clear of conflicting traffic, though coming to think of it TAs are quite a common occurence to on the way up and down.
ATC is pretty standard as long as no deviation from standard is experienced. The moment you ask for something 'not quite standard', the poor guy sounds lost (due to language difficulties), and often a conversation in Russian develops between some other well-intentioned Russian pilot and ATC, after which you may get an answer. Having said that some ATCOs have very good english, one even with an American accent!
By coincidence I'm off their again tomorrow and will probably use thier de-icing facilities for the first time! Any feedback on this issue? Pretty standard?
