Flew through France a while ago and going through Lyon zone, I received from the ATC current weather and he ended it with Quebec Foxicle. Having flown in Germany for several years, I was used to QNH and not QFE, and I did not clue in to Quebec Foxicle from the French controller. Had to call my second shipmate, he was French, and asked him what was a Quebec Foxicle, Thinking some slanderous comment about me a Canuck and possibly being from Quebec. He told me that it was Quebec Fox Echo. My reply, a few seconds later, was, ooohhh.
We had a good chuckle at that at the next fuel stop!
