volcanic ash ?

How about this for overreaction. Farnborough radar will only give Basic service. No Traffic service. NATS advise that if the controller gives you a turn to avoid another aicraft you could be turned into ash and could then sue NATS! OK to have an air to air then.
Why is it deemed SAFE to fly in the Gatwick Zone but UNSAFE to fly in the Heathrow Zone. Less ash in the Gatwick Zone? Madness
