Kabukiman, we were all complete novices at one time or another. The "Oxford problem" in my opinion, solves itself after a few weeks when a litle experience has been gained.
My breaking point is when I hear the tower say "Which one are you? Waggle your wings!"
you're right of course. I'm delighted when I do slot in behind an oxford plane and they do everything nicely.
Also wasn't the idea of ensuring they have a good grasp of English... that they can communicate effectively, in English? Between some oxford students and some of the students around mangalore/ballarat I really do have trouble understanding what they are doing or trying to say.
