Control tower transcript from Berlin Airport, where a Lufthansa pilot has just called the tower in German:
Tower: Please report in English.
Pilot: I am a German, flying for a German airline, landing at a German airport. Why should I have to speak English.
Plummy English-accented voice from another airliner:
Because we won the bloody war, old chap!
Why English (again)
