OK......a few questions, hopefully not all silly ones, I'm just curious
On a flight like the one planned, how much ATC involvement would there have been?
Apparently there were no mayday calls...but wouldn't there have been discussions with Llanbedr or Valley or somewhere along that part of the flightplan...discussions about the weather, if it was as bad on one side of the mountains than where they were...what the situation was for a diversion or permission for divert....???
Radar contact lost at 16:15 yesterday...but what about radio contact...when did they stop communications and who was the last ones to have spoken to the pilot, what was said, did the weather enter the discussions??
Very little has been released about the RT...surely they spoke to someone, somewhere??
