'Aunt Rimmer' !! - where did you get that name from??

Can I just concur with what my esteemed colleague has just typed.

'No safety problem', 'no drama'??

On the sector that I was doing at the time, I can assure you, it was purely fortuitous that separation wasn't lost, despite my best efforts.

By definition, if you are working in a radar environment and your main tool for separation purposes (...the radar display), goes tits up, you automatically have a serious safety issue.

If this had happened an hour earlier, there is no doubt in my mind that a serious loss of separation would have occured.
