As an Air France pilot operating out of CDG, I can assure you many of us wish for English to be the standard language on freq.
Resistance mainly comes from ATC...
What authority does EASA have on this issue. Pills have an ELA rating; I assume ATC does also. Therefore we all have the ability. EU is EASA territory and they have law making ability. Does it include ALL aspects of front line aviation? If so could ECA not lobby for ATC in English in all states?
