UK CAA as I read it:
"as we do not currently have sufficient information from the flight data recorder,
we have, as a precautionary measure, issued instructions to stop any commercial passenger flights from any operator arriving, departing or overflying UK airspace."

Which sounds logical because they are not in the direct line of the investigation. The recorder(s) are probably under way to either NTSB or BEA or ... And the UK AAIB/CAA will not be present at the first readout(s) (hoping that they can be read).

You would think that when FDR information comes available they would compare that with the Lion Air case and investigation and design discussions associated with that. And based on that comparison every party informed will decide on lifting a ban or making it less temporary.

Next to this you would at least expect a press release by EASA stating they are following events ... that individual countries can make a decision ... and list the status of the decision by individual EU countries.
