Who Controls The Skies??
OK, please bear with me for a second, I am an American, and am not a pilot, so I know some of you will say that is two strikes... I won't tell you what I do in the USAF, as that would probably mean the third!
Anyhow, as for my question, in discussions at lunch today a bud of mine mentioned he was once told that all airspace over the UK was controlled by the MOD and they would allocate which areas civvie aircraft can fly in. I guess he mean the MOD would tell the CAA where their planes could fly.
In the US the FAA controls the skies and allocates to the military.
So, is he full of it or is this true? I figured I could get a quick answer on this forum. I am sure I will also get a lot of Yank bashing as well, but it comes with the territory!
Thanks! Maj M2
