The whole story is a load of
about a ridiculous over-reaction. Since when does any Perf. A aircraft "fault indication" require a motorway to be shut down? But the phraseology is the typical guff I expect a from a bunch of limp-wristed, progressive arts graduates employed by civic amenities: "a clear flight path" - my arse. Exactly how low does this dross expect an aircraft to fly? Were ATC told to calculate a flight path such that if any catastrophic failure took place Derby and Nottingham would be safe? What other precautions took place? And as AM stated, what **** for brains thought tweeting motorists would be a good idea? How exactly were they meant to read the bloody thing?
All of those involved in this over-reaction should be publicly drowned in a bucket of water - either that or used for medical experiments. Our world will be better off without them.
