just my little contribution, luckily just got in on thursday and not flying till tuesday at the earliest.
most of you are talking about nats, it's decisions and the traffick arriving into the uk. i know you live on an island and that makes for a certain outlook, i guess, but all of the other civil aviation authorities of northern europe have taken the same decision.

and an aircraft arriving from say spain would have to fly through (at least) france, where the airspace is closed, not only contolled airspace, ALL civilian airspace. so no vfr, ifr or other imagination.

let's just weather this out, try and understand thoses who are stuck somewhere.

out for the day now
