My objection to the UK's "After the..." is that...
a) it is non-ICAO and therefore creates a difference, internationally, in a safety-critical situation
b) it was introduced solely as a knee-jerk reaction because one pilot failed to exercise sensible precautions in respect of the conduct of his flight when the ATC instruction was sound
and c) it makes no sense in English ("after the landing 737..." - after it has done what, pray?)
