Typical French arrogance. And it is -typical-. Just like the following
incident...

Foreign pilots complained that while in French airspace, Air Traffic Control
(ATC) and French pilots converse in French. The problem is that you as pilot
need to know what is happening in the airspace around you. Which is a
problem if you do not understand French.

After numerous requests to the French ATC authorities (Air France), a
directive was issued requiring all ATC broadcasts to be in English. But this
lasted just over a week (10 days to be precise). After threatening letters
from organisations like "Defence of the French Language", the directive has
been rescinded, pending to investigation and official decision at a later
stage.

So air safety comes second to the French language. But then what else do you
expect from a country despite international requests from many other nations
and continued their nuclear testing in the Pacific.

Incidents like this and many others, are having me loose respect for the
French nation pretty quickly. And now French postings in an international
English newsgroup... Typical as I said. Pretty damn typical of these
arrogant bastards...
