Fougamagister, the French Atc surely forgot you have spoken in french...and looking at your callsign, she called you in english...
(but she should have rememberd )
It seems obvious that speaking only one language would bring a lot for safety...the problem is that everybody must be able to speak and understan this language properly!
If French atc had spoken english,we could have avoided some incidents or accidents but we could have created others due to misunderstanding in english.....
I think this is the reason why the "all english in frequency" try ended in Paris CDG...they had some problems with non native english speakers...and it was not a question of pride...stop with that now!!!!!
