"Whilst"
When I receive an email containing the phrase 'please revert with your position', I copy paste my previous mail and send it off. Confuses the hell out of them, gives me something to laugh at.
'We shall do the needful' is code, and means the exact opposite of what's written.

Just reading the ASR's (bored).
"Of grate" Was used in a report about engine cowl securing in BUD on a 330.
Of grate? Seriously?
Hear ye, hear ye, hear ye, the most esteemed commander of the iron bird known as the Aey three thirty is of grate to the peasants that workith on said vessel!

The problem is that the EK Language Police themselves advises against using said word even though it's used ad nauseam in company documentation.
That's why!
