EDI ATC are fantastic

Just though I should say EDI ATC are fantastic. I like their CDAs and the ranges seem to work out well. Glad to see the " descend when ready" phrase being used as it allows pilots the choice of when to descent and save noise and fuel.
thanks

Could be mis-interpreted as they're not being very busy and have too much airspace to play in.

Scott, I guess one is received warmly by the pilots and the other by their employers?

Thought being a fantastic ATS would involve providing safe and efficient services received warmly by pilots than seeing how many you can cram in at minimum separation in tiny airspace...

Don't think you'll be getting anymore visits to PH ATC for a while
