Thanks x
There are currently 4 NERL centres:
LACC at Swanwick
TC at West Drayton
MACC at Manchester
and
ScOACC at Prestwick

TC is moving to LACC and they'll merge, MACC is moving to ScOACC and they'll merge leaving NATS with its 2 centre strategy.

An airfield is an aerodrome is an airport is a whatever name you want to give it, nothing to do with who the operator is.
