NATS - You truly are world leaders

Thank you NATS for being the only people around here to have the b*lls to put your money where your mouth is and make a very difficult decision that will ultimately, probably have saved lives by being the first ANSP to close their airspace to all aircraft. An unprecedented decision which it took the rest of Europe many hours to follow and could not have been an easy decision to take bearing in mind all the flak it was bound to generate. I hope at some time in the future the person who ultimately took that brave decision will be recognised and acknowledged.
