Any movement at the fence?
People really should go to the toilet before they leave home. Movements at the fence are disgusting.

It used to be called Norway Control until Eurocontrol decided that ATC positions shouldn't have the same name as the country they're in.

This just leaves Sweden and the UK as the only countries in Europe that need to make changes. (Sweden Control should eventually rename all their "Sweden" sectors to Stockholm Control, Scottish Control won't change because let's be honest, NATS and the CAA do what they want)
