For last years allocated liason visit, I tried to arrange a trip to the "nearby" FC unit, mistakenly believeing that a visit by a civil atco (that's non - mil, not polite
), would be of benefit to both sides.
Big mistake
.
I was fobbed off to the nth degree by red tape, and went to Amsterdam instead.
A shame really, 'cos I still believe that FC could benefit from intrusions into their world from the aliens that are other airspace users.
