Standard Noise, A group of freinds lost 10,000 in flight fares, hotel bookings and car hire that they would have used this weekend.

Four hours smack bang in the middle of the day. It might as well have been 9am-9pm.

The *entire* country's controlled airspace was closed, timed to cause maximum f*ck-up ot Irish passengers,

Then the people who did it say "ohh ohhh don't look at meeee look at the big bad managers waah waah waaah makin me work the big bad compooter system that scares me waaah waah waah"

If it was a safety issue, why didn't the union guy state it?

What is the name of the disputed computer system? Anyone got a company link?
