I know that hearing ATC in an open cock-pit (sic), stick and rudder biplane can be tricky and do give her some leeway on that but equally I can see how she would drive any sane ATCO round the bend.
I wish her a safe flight but if she starts spouting crap again she can expect to be challenged on it.
