Ok, I'll say it!

Their Hollywood esque, cliche packed r/t is appalling and will one day result in a very unfortunate and very avoidable accident. Their very slick (or so they'd like to think) patter maybe fine for people who are brought up on it. But if they wish advertise their faciliities as `International`, then in the interests of safety allowances must be made for people who are unfamiliar and or operating in a second/third language. The very fact that JFK is by many considered to be a CAT C airfield due to its r/t says it all really.
