Hi Paul;

As noted, 122.7 is a common CTAF here as well.

That aside, I think I can offer some enlightenment on the inordinately
high number of Indian-accented pilots in Southern Ontario recently.

Both UOIT in Oshawa and Centennial college are offering very intensive
commercial pilot training out of CYOO, and a huge number of overseas
students have swamped the courses. At Canadian Flight Academy alone a
huge portion of the current students are of Indian decent, and there is
also the Durham Flight Center participating in these courses.

You probably heard a few of the students out on their cross countries,
perhaps.

As for the wording...I have no idea...perhaps a mix of tough to
distinguish English pronunciation along with added student stumbles on the
radio?

Are we losing student-starts to our northern neighbor due to TSA/OHS
requirements?
