Not with the biggest project fear lies that all the planes wont be
able to fly the day after,

Long since dispelled by the EU stating that British aircraft would
be allowed into their airspace, even if there were a no deal Brexit.

Still one of the original project fear bare
faced lies in the runup to the referendum.

It was a completely accurate statement of international aviation law.
Aircraft on scheduled flights have to have permission to fly into or
over the territory of another country. ICAO Convention, Part I,
Chapter II, Article 6.

At present, that permission is inherent in our membership of the EU.
Without a deal or the unilateral declaration given by the EU, British
aircraft would not have been allowed into EU airspace from the Brexit
date.

A total technicality since far more aircraft would have been
disallowed over UK airspace, to and from Europe...

Which would have been a far greater problem for us than for them.


You really think that there are more aircraft in British fleets than in
all of the EU combined?
You really think that any organisation would deny to one nation what it
allows every other nation in the world that isn't in the EU?
You are senile.
Evebn the EU isnt THAT stupid.
