Hurting the UK in a lot of ways:
Downside:
-No more cabotage in Europe
-Only to and from flights to the UK on G reg aircraft
-a lot of UK reg aircraft will move out to other registers
-VAT might be payable on aircraft that were previously in free circulation in the EU
-UK CAA has to choose between EASA or FAA as no sane person will want to have an aircraft on a UK CAA MX program.. Most likely EASA...
-UK crew cannot be on contract in Europe anymore as they were before
-UK CAA who is funded by it's users (pilots, engineers, AOC's etc) have lost a lot of them and will have funding issues -> prices go up for users..
-UK CAA has a shortfall of 300 plus experienced staff in a market where ther is already a shortage
Upside:
-Blue passport back
