I don't want to turn this into anything political, but I am interested enough in something I read about today concerning airline's concerns about Britain leaving the Open Skies Agreement. (OSA for short)
Am I right in thinking that should Britain no longer be in the OSA, would it interfere with just landing/takeoff rights, or would it mean restrictions on UK based airlines accessing EU airspace, with a reciprocal restriction on EU based airlines accessing British air space?
As an example, could it mean Ryanair having to fly south west out of Dublin to avoid UK air space, then south east over Spain and then north east to get to Paris?
Instead of, as present, presumably flying east/south east over The UK.
I readily concede my directions might be wrong, but it's the General principal I'm after.
