It Aint" English - It's New York ATC!

WHBM: "JFK gabblers"? Very condescending and insulting of you . I certainly appreciate what and how JFK ATC handle the traffic in/out/around/on JFK, EWR and LGA. It's their way of doing business.

I have been operating long haul into JFK for over 14 years, and by all accounts, it is a challenge but that is what I like about JFK.

As the saying goes: "If you can make it in New York, then you can make it anywhere". Hell, that might even apply to ATC.

Cresmer: As the title suggests - it ain't English, it's New York ATC. PLEASE don't make BA the starring example, as BA is ALWAYS slow

Bottom line: JFK ATC recognised something going very pear-shaped, did something about it, by telling Lufthansa about it, thereby averting an accident. Did I miss something else? And yes, well done JFK ATC.
