   One day I was in either JFK or Minneapolis and a Japan Airlines 787 had   
   arrived. I was queueing for immigration.   
       
   Suddenly there was a PA-announcement "Japanese translator requested booth-1"   
   which processes airline crews ... there was the captain of that Japan Air   
   Lines 787 waiting to be processed ...   
       
   It is common knowledge that in Quebec airspace french and english is being   
   used, same as above France. Flying through Spanish airspace it is best to   
   understand spanish, same as the whole of South America where both spanish and   
   english are being used, except for Brazil where at domestic airports   
   Brazilian-portuguese is also used. However Portugal is strictly Spanish...
