Before everyone gets carried away with gushing eulogies for Atlas let us remember that just a over a week ago we had the fredom to fly without permission.

Now we have to file flight plans, cannot fly other than in a straight line within the zone, and have to accept massive disruption should we be delayed by more than 30 minutes due to en route weather

This restriction is over burdensome, over lengthy and has been implemented without any evidence of necessity being demonstrated. Jobs will be lost and our industry damaged. We also have a situation where the military are controlling a civilian aspect of British life

It is vital we ensure that Atlas is disbanded and not mothballed and that these restrictions are never reactivated in the future.

So I will not be telling anyone how lovely Atlas is any more that a condemned man congratulates his hangman
