I certainly do not wish to turn this into a race-based thread, but....
What percentage of those mid-airs and near misses involved air crew from a non-English speaking background?
What percentage had, as a contributing factor, non-standard or otherwise inadequate RT?
In my area the radio calls made by some of the students (foreign and local, VH and RAAus) do little more than alert you there is another aircraft.... somewhere.
