If the airport FSS was as reported "not available" does this not render the airport closed as FSS would be zero?
It depends on the local laws. In Australia RFFS (Rescue & Fire Fighting Service) coverage was only required for international operations. There was no requirement for domestic operations, so most of the airports I flew to (in jet ops, like 737s) had no coverage at all.
