If people keep on advocating or approving of the use of French for ATC purposes it won't be long before Brussels and Strasbourg get to hear of it. Then you'll soon find that, notwithstanding the impossible idiocy of it, January will be Flemish month, February: German, March: Greek (well maybe) April: Turkish, (if the silly Brits get their way) and so on. Allah alone knows what happens when you approach the Spanish month with all their delightfully different languages. Quite a lot of people have a hard enough time with English as a second or third language. Don't widen the field too far beyond the parameters of rational possibility.
