Decided to fly around the world in my new King Air. Ain't no way I'm getting 1800 nautical miles at 66%and 1500RPM. So I go for less distance, I'm easy. I marvel at the wonderful speaking of English by the Russian and Japanese contollers. I know english is the official language of ATC. Buy no dialect at all? Maybe When I get to China I'll hear, " Yoo wanna land Boss, We got biggee flat space." I'm just kidding of course. Any body else try heading around the world without a passport and no international clearance. East to west. It's lonely over the north pacific between Atka and Kamchatka.

Ahhh....try the same 'round the world flight with VATSIM and you WILL run across controllers(a chance ATC may not be present ALL the time) that DO have different accents....a great way to meet people from around the world!
