Hmm... Pilot words:
Enroute ("Enr-ow-t" vs "En-root")
Scenario ("Scen-ah-rio" vs "Scen-ay-rio")
Data ("Day-ta" vs "Da-ta")
Pitot ("Pee-toe" vs "Pee-tot")
Pilot ("Pie-lut" vs "Pee-lot"
Helicopter ("Helicopter" vs "Airplane" vs "Chopper" vs "Copter" vs "Heli" vs "Helo" vs "Bird" vs "Ship")
On a more random note: how about the people who say "matoor" for "mature"? Do they also say "futoor (future)", "natoor (nature)", "departoor (departure)", etc.?
