Three flight in R112 today. Filed 3 plans via AFPEx, 2 were accepted but the other was neither accepted or rejected (I have a feeling it was because it was ZZZZ to ZZZZ within R112).
A phone call solved the problem.
One site was within the Gatwick CTR and this seemed to put a high workload on Gatwick Director when I wanted to lift as they had to liase with ATLAS whilst herding EasyJet pilots into an orderly queue.
I still don't agree that "we" any safer from an airbourne terrorist threat, but the imposed system does seem to be working.
