Well, most british people i know (and believe me, i know a lot), donīt realize how small their country is. No hard feelings, i like english and the brits, but let me make my point:
The same international conventions and laws that make english the aeronautical language give us, the spaniards, the right (and obligation in some cases) to use our own language with spanish-speaking pilots if they call in in spanish (if they call in english we always answer in english). The matter is that we accept the rules, and i am tired of reading again and again that some of you just donīt.
Maybe we, the international community, should revise the whole thing, but... would you accept, in that case, another language to be the new aeronautical one?
Best regards.
