To which most "furriners" would be confused, then not know what to ask for...
To which i would suggest "the kind that gives me traffic info of stuff thats going to get close or might hit me, but doesnt tell me about someone 10miles away 2000ft above, warns me if it looks like im about to blunder into an RAT or ZIT and smooths the way through controlled airspace enroute... ie, the type of FIS i have been getting in France and Italy this last week or so.
But the reality of which is they will respond "basic service" and then.....what???
