During my checkride every time I said "Half bank", examiner chuckled. One of my leg from CLE to ORD, FAA came on board. And it was'nt my leg to fly. During the flight I've responded to ATC "Affirmative" & FAA started to chuckle. But he tapped my shoulder & said that I did a good job before he left. I'm furloughed now. But before I get back in flying again, I need to do something about my accent. Thank you.
