Well said GK430.

I for one as a former Meteorology student fully concur with your analysis. As a user, I have to say in the rapidly changing conditions, the airport boys and girls did well. Shame some of the local authorities and train companies didn't do so well.

Given that de-icer comes by road from various locations across the UK, presumably, the airfields rely on the motorway network for their supplies. So if the roads are out, the de-icant use clock starts ticking.

Well done to all the other GK430 types who work airside and take all the wx and then take the usual comments from uninformed members of the aviation community.
