Default No Puter' No Flights..

Computer failure grounds flights
Most flights from UK airports have been suspended following an air traffic
control computer failure, National Air Traffic Services has confirmed.
It says flights have been grounded so that controllers can prioritise on
planes already in the air, but that air safety is unaffected.

Manchester and Bristol airports have said their systems are running again.

Many airports are advising people to check in as normal, but delays are
likely to continue throughout the day.
