"Thirty-four, on the hole"...
I know ICAO is like the UN general assembly..., but please follow ICAO standard English phraseology ALWAYS, even if English isnt your mother-toungue, and as long as you have international traffic in your area of operation.
It's terrible to have Americans(), Russians, Greeks, Spanish (including Central/South America), French, Germans, Brazilians (in Brazilian Portuguese) and so on (many more other diverse countries across the worl) speaking their own native languages when other pilots (of different nationalities) are in the area understanding "JUST NOTHING" of what's going on around them.
Is this good for SAFETY? Aren't we global now?
