General community for news/discussion in the UK.

Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.

Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

Problem with one line of data? Better shutdown the airspace.

Amazing this hadn't happened before with a strategy like that.

Also, duplicate waypoints are allowed, just not in the same region. But also exit points don't have to be explicitly indicated and the system will just look for the nearest waypoint in another region.

Sounds like the whole thing was a needlessly hacky messy standard. I've dealt with quite a few of them, but to tolerate it in air traffic control? Good grief....
