PENKO :
I love the French:
pilot: Reims good morning, XYZ123, FL390 to RESMI
French ATC: Good morning XYZ123, radar contact, maintain FL390 to RESMI
Duh!
(or is there some rule that I do not know about?)

and your point is ???
as to existing FANS 1A Data link, as Millermann said , and I as well , it is not suitable for dense European continental airspace for tactical control for many reasons and has been recognized as such.
The only technologies for me that might help us reduce R/T in the future in that area is a combination of ATN D/L and ADS-B with transfer of some ATC tasks to the cockpit. But this is at least 10 years ahead, if not 20.
