I departed ncl yesterday am. Very little snow but seemed to take a long time to clear runway. Before the Copenhagen/Parkin cuts about 5 yrs ago there enough ploughs to keep rwy and taxiways clear pretty well all the time. Probably had to close airfield because they didnt have enough staff or equipment to move A/C. Would be interested to know what the rwy condition was at time.
