Then....If the AC airplane responded to the HOLD at 24L holding point instruction, with the incorrect response, as in "HOLD 24L", meaning "Line-up and hold, 24L", why did the ATC controller not repeat the instruction, as is the norm, until he/she got the correct response?

English is the language of air traffic control it amazes me is how poor the English of some Air Traffic Controllers can be. Poor English and non-standard phraseology seem to be the norm.

I would interpret "Hold 24L" as taxi to holding point 24L.
Why donīt we all use standard phraseology?!
-----------------------------------------------------------
Says it all really doesn't it? I wonder how many other "interpretations" occur everyday?

At least in Japan, they speak English. Come to Quebec CANADA where they babble in French.

I truly think that this misunderstanding has nothing to do with Canadians, since I have had a lot of experience flying around with Asian pilots for the last couple of years so I can openly say that an Air Canada pilot would never let his sane mind to wonder consciously, while the Orientals do that on the daily basis (no offence), driving,flying, boating etc...,We are all just different I guess.
One can be a pilot and drive a bicycle and not be able to cut the next corner left and then one can be a plumber and fly a plane...Oh well, which one is the Canadian, hehehehe...?

Hey Jhonny you are the one doing politic now
The incident did not happen in Quebec but in Japan
I am pretty sure the 2 pilots of Air Canada were anglos and they did not understood proper english
That was a mistake and it can happen to anyone

They may babble in French but they use proper English when required.
There is nothing wrong with the Japanese ATC English.
At least you can maintain the ENTIRE situationally awareness, by listening to ALL of the ATC conversations.
Speaks volumes that the Japanese speak only English, but not the Quebecer's.
...now back to the topic.

Whatever happened with confirming an instruction with ATC,especially when it involves a lineup clearance in whatever phraseology is used.
In Osaka when a single runway is used they do strive to depart 1 ac per landing but that does not always occur and have held for many minutes
while numerous have landed.
TCAS at this point is usually active and also gives an indication of aircraft on approach.

Wouldn't it be wise to wait to see the actual R/T exchange before passing judgment ? Then we can see who has said what and how and you can continue condemning people' actions, but knowing the facts this time. .
For me ,aborting APP 1,5 NM out is not what I will call a headlines news item.
But in Japan it is obviously.

"Hold Position" is commonly used in Japan to Hold Short of an active runway. In Canada it is common to hear the phrase "Position and Hold RW15" for a line up clearance, instead of the proper phraseology "Line up and wait RW15".
I believe this contributed to the error. The pilot heard the word "position" and made an assumption.
If standard R/T is used, with only very specific words for each case, confusion and errors are significantly reduced in this particularily critical phase.
"Hold Short RW15"
"Line up and wait RW15"
"Cleared for takeoff RW15"
