Question

[quote] However the French do not yet accept the new alpha-numeric callsigns, so you will continue to hear the published Flight No. used when the destination is in France.. .<hr></blockquote>

Is this is a blanket refusal by the French (most unlike them really ) or just anti-Midland? Why do BA flights to CDG from MAN have callsigns 16MP and 606B to name just two?

I know the Midland ones can be particularly challenging even to a native English speaker! <img src="wink.gif" border="0">

Edited to correct the spelling of this native English speaker!
