My first language isn't English either.
Because native English speakers have never gone VMC into IMC and crashed! And attitude indicators and numbers totally require a flawless grasp of the English language.
I'm from Kentucky, so technically my isn't either

So when you jumped off a lot of ramps on your BMX and would always freeze midair, then some gravely voiceover would say "Now JordanD just wasn't thankin' right" Dukes of Hazzard style?
You know how long my family has waited for John Deere to come out with a General Lee riding mower? Generations!

Waylon Jennings.
And IIRC that was in Georgia, not Kentucky.
Ohhh the PC police would be all over that.
I dunno, most of my state still hasn't gotten around to the toothbrush yet.

Here's how it might have gone had the controller and, er, pilot, been better put together... http://www.npr.org/player/v2/mediaPlayer.html?action=1&t=1&islist=false&id=4654062&m=4654131

I don't think it's an Apple issue. I'm using Apple, so maybe. But it took a long time for it to load on my machine. At first I thought it was broken. Then I gave it some time and it loaded. I believe the NPR player is neutral, but not sure.

JJ Abrams you Insensitive Bastard.
Kinda late to chime in, I hadn't seen this thread before. But having studied with plenty of Asian students, and hearing half the audio - I couldn't bear to listen it fully.
I really think this was another case of "do what Sensei says". She called Hello several times - and when there was some positive contact with ATC she was repeating what she was taught, as a normal check in, and reading back everything the controller said. You could hear her anguish in her voice, but unfortunately the results were tragic.
I don't think this is a case of english not being the native language, I think this is a case of culture roots. Most asians are taugh that the instructor or the captain is Sensei and do whatever they say, regardless if its right or wrong. I guess she followed her instructor's - or boss' - instructions to the point it got out of her thought process and it went downhill from there.
