I hope this wasn't a case of foreign language ATC vs. english-only proficient pilots. If LVP was enforced and controllers were talking to ground movement in a different language, SA could be greatly & negatively influenced. Crew might not even know what was/still is/will be on the runway!
Yes this shouldn't have happened, but i stand wishing that we all can one day just speak one language so that all can be understood. Until then, gear up techies! TCAS for ground movement too? If there was such a thing.
