Hi, Guys!

It's in English because that's an "International Language" if my sources are correct. (Everybody wants to learn English, including the terrorists) And perhaps the truck takes an occasional Sabbatical from Schiphol (for ein bier, bitte)? On the other hand...."It pays to advertise"...

But then, in these days, who can make sense of the European mind?...

Correct. It was odd in Copenhagen to hear a Danish couple, early 20s, walking down the street speaking English to each other.

But this van seemed an odd venue for advertising. I know if I ran an airport (or an airline) I wouldn't want passengers' attention being overly drawn to "Aircraft Structure and Damage Repair."
