Sorry about the delays guys that's what happens when you buy something the makers promise won't fail(Titanic) as its got four back up modes before complete failure but still manages to fail .

This is actually the second time this week its collapsed on us.

We still don't know what the fault is and it can still collapse at any time so hence the flow rate to protect us and you.

Basically it went into emergency mode and everything decorrelated mean we only saw Sq codes andwere not able to interact with the system in any form. No new data was coming into the system. The next stage is a complete failure of the system.

So basically this can happen again at any time. As the fix takes ages i.e. as long as Thales take to sort it it could be around annoying us for a good few weeks if not months !
