Dan, that's the story I heard.
Allegedly, around £20m was spent on the project.....Glossy brochure and a BIG simulation down at the EU. One unit in the north sent a Scotsman down to find out what was taking place.....He was very impressed with what he observed.
Allegedly, on the last day/critique thingy he said....."Just one question.....What happens when everyone starts avoiding Wx?".
It all went a bit quiet, and CCF/TITS was never heard from again!
PS.....I had a splendid pub-lunch with aforementioned Scotsman today!
