US ATC

Having an emergency in the US is such a pleasure with ATC on your side. I departed a major airport in a very large Asian country recently (in the same type - A320) and asked for vectors back to the field due to a problem I won't go into here - and was told to maintain the SID which took me further away from the airport. Had to declare a PAN to get what I wanted.
