Iran Air into Manston?

Iran Air are dodging a ban which disallows them to uplift fuel from LHR by utilising Manston Airport in Kent which is privately owned by a New Zealand company.

And now the mad mullahs have voted to break off diplomatic relations with the UK and chuck the Ambassador out of Iran.

Oh well that will be that, then it will be 'bye bye Iran Air' (I don't suppose you'll see that on the side of a Ryanair 737:D)

The issue is that Manston supplies fuel from non US aligned sources.

Given yesterday's events in Tehran, Iran Air should have made their last flight to the UK for a long time to come.
