Email to [email protected] but don't blame the addressee. It's done by committee but he is the co-ordinator, has only recently taken on the task and has a list of potential changes a yard (metre?) long.

Spookily, QNH 1000 thingies yesterday morning. Passed by YT as "QNH One Thousand millibars" because I consider the "standard" phrase to be potentially hazardous. All Brit pilots and one or two non-Brits read back as passed, one non-Brit read back as "one zero zero zero" - not a huge sample but interesting.
