- have to keep on saying this - "as long as you understand it will have practically no effect in Europe." My ATC friends tell me the most likely response is "Are you declaring an emergency?" (as in PAN/MAYDAY.) If the answer is negative, another sup of tea and get on with the other a/c and you take your turn.
