"Pakistani" airfield near Toronto?
"Mark Morissette" wrote in message m... 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? Jay Beckman PP-ASEL Chandler, AZ |
