Yep. Hard flying sometimes with an FO who can’t understand and read back a clearance. “Why don’t you take a break, my radios buddy”.

Actually yes. I’ve flown with one. I was shocked but it’s true. She worked at her flight school (which was a 2 year university) as a CFI and upon graduation had enough hours to start at SkyWest. She is flying on the OPT (optional practical training) part of her F-1 visa.

Does ICAO compliant radio telephony freak you out? Pretty much every Aussie is taught R/T to a pretty decent level. Sure there’s an adjustment period but I’m still shocked at some stuff I hear on centre.

Why do want to make this about Aussies dog?!?

Accents are hard to understand, even native English speakers. The content of your speech isn’t the question anyway.

Aussienaugts, the best pilots in the world. Just ask them.
Keep them away from your training department. If you don’t understand why? Than your in a safe place.

Cape Air will sometimes sponsor a foreign pilot's work visa.
