with an aircraft approaching both the crew would have been on their toes because both sets of crew would have been in "contact"on the map with a zero next to the A/C symbol When the russian aircraft started it descent a little arrow would have pointed out its vertical path on the DHL aircraft's map provided the vs of the descending A/C was greater than 500ft/min the crew on the DHL obviously did not get this indication on their map due to the RA .
Is it a practice in those skies for an aircraft to announce Left level ........ for Level........ when advised by ATC to descend
