Re: The death of Fighter Control

I can only echo what Dunk has said. We're having some conversations amongst the team following this, and we'll do everything we can to make sure that FC lives on for everyone.

I still keep a watchful eye on Fairford, and when not busy, still visit! I do have a list of 2015 list of movement...
