It was text book from start to finish. The RAF response would put a Klingon Warbird to shame......couple of blinks and they were there. Everything by the book....superb.....well done all.
NO need for any other aircraft operator or passengers to be alarmed or even concerned.....a whole spectrum of carefully rehearsed procedures ensures safety throughout.
