I remember vividly a day back in 2008; we were flying a PA28 back up to Liverpool from Exeter... we were working London Info at the time and knew we were flying towards a front coming south... we discussed alternates and got ready to turn back/land and get a taxi home if necessary despite IFR capability....
The distressing part of this tale is that another PA28, flying from Gloucester to Ireland was also on frequency and we heard London "doing the best they could" to advise the other PA28 that things were going to deteriorate over Ireland if they pressed on.
Sadly they did press on and four people lost their lives that day - still can't comprehend what made the PIC ignore the advice with such dreadful results...
Thank-you FBW and all of your colleagues for doing the best you can to keep us safer up there - keep it up.. most of us listen to you!!
