Always remember calling up Lakenheath Radar a few years ago for a service when heading VFR up to Norwich. The US controller just could not handle the fact that I was showing an 800 foot difference on his (doubtless multi-million dollar) display compared to my declared altitude.
We later wondered how he would have coped with incoming Soviet bombers; would he have expected them to call up and ask for a QNH ?
