In particular, new Article 68 will apply. This law will give UK the legal basis to certify these airports for domestic use but without EU recognition, they can't be used internationally. They WILL be confined to domestic traffic.

Hopefully, the UK Government will be on top of the situation and realise that a "crash out" Hard Brexit would make negotiation for airport recognition a little problematical. Fingers crossed that a Withdrawal Agreement can be finalised at the upcoming European Council on 27/28 June.
Saves them having to debate the third runway I guess.

Does this mean that EU and possibly UK fleets will be uninsured to operate to uk airfields from international destinations perchance?
