In my recent experience, anywhere near Glasgow you go over or round - transits did not seem to be obtainable anyhow.

They certainly seem to be permanently short of controllers judging by the longstanding NOTAM.

However, I've never been refused a transit at Glasgow in 29 years and many dozens of occasions. Even managed to get ad hoc practice ILS's. They have been unfailingly helpful.

I hope for the sake of the recently opened flight school and the UAS the problems are short lived.
