Had atelephone call from a mate just back from sunny Spain.He tells me the TOM flight he was on had to hold away from DTV and couldnt land as there was no firemen !!!
apparently a couple of other aircraft also had to hold.Now this wasnt 4 in the morning this was lunchtime.Can you beleive that an airport would run there services so badly ?
I remember they had a notam out about reduced fire services due staffing?
This will surely do the reputation a bundle of good!!!
