Yes, with a strong blend of 'shout louder so the wop understands.'

Ten to one he has never flown VFR in the UK and probably practices fencing in the cruise - 'en garde.'

I am somewhat surprised that SNS3 Guppy hasn't heard of Captain Carlson, for the benefit of anyone who is going to fly in the USA for the first time, he wrote a book that explains the way comms work across there Amazon.com: Captain Carlson's Airplane Talk: The Complete Book of Vfr and Ifr Communications (9780961195403): Glenn Carlson: Books

When I first flew in the USA, my instructor sent me a copy beforehand and I found it very useful in learning a VFR system that was rather different to my normal experience, but which works very well once you understand it.
