English is a MUST

Someone made a comment on this which I agree... this incident is a clear example of why all of us must use English in Aviation (FYI my mother language is Spanish but I hate to hear someone talking in Spanish at an international airport)

A clear example of how important it's to listen the radio all the time. What would have happened if the UA1448 was speaking a local language with ATC? A distaster. Pilots/ATC think about it! English must be used all the time.


very scary....

Well done for UsAir...

What do you guys think of this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7YvjU...related&search=?


Ground operations are the most treacherous

Good folks on both sides of the freq. overtaxed by a strained outdtaed and unsafe system governed by a famous tombstone agency ---good people waiting to be destoyed no one wants this to occur but it does, there has to be a fix even one incursion is unacceptable but not totally preventable in today's evironment SMCGS, stop bars, etc. has to be implemented at ALL locations where air carrier ops take place; it IS worth the cost [i'm sure everyone agrees].
how can we bear another KLM/Pan am

I'm sure all carriers have implemented a comprehensive low visibilty taxi procedures written in all Operation specifications because now some carriers have RVR 3 operations! and with increased use of LAHSO! sounds like a disaster waiting though I pray not!

On the other side, that clip I got from youtube didn't mention if the percentage of GA included: a fair assessment then?
