On this subject, does anyone know why PIK and SNN are being used as transit stops by the US?? Why do they not save a load of hassle and just go through Mildenhall??
Or is it deliberate policy to ensure that the UK and Ireland are 'involved' whether we like it or not. I am particularly puzzled as to why SNN is used, considering the Republic is not only against the Iraq conflict, but has been avowedly neutral since its inception...
(I should state that although I live in Ireland now, I am a British 'refugee'!!)
