The controllers at Amsterdam would take some beating.
Was awaiting takeoff clearance one sunny day in the queue, when tower were working, 3 different runways and two banner towing Piper Cubs, overhead the field at 1500', transiting to the beach. I was impressed anyway and they spoke English and English, that i could understand.
I commented to the crew, "Can you imagine that happening at LHR or LGW?!"
