At least in the old sevice names you got what it said on the jar...!!!!

i.e. Flight Information service....self explanatory??

Radar Information service.....even the uneducated would assume a radar was being used???

New service type's....
Basic service..........what does that mean???? sounds naff to me!!
traffic service........sounds a bit like the old FIS but infact not at all as it is a Radar derived service

Its amazing how many folk ask me for a "Basic Information Service".......!!

If folk before did'nt understand the service's they recieved....for sure they dont now!!!
