Edinburgh Airport is also down, suspending all flights after an "IT issue with our air traffic control provider". Not sure if this is coincidental, but the timing is rather suspicious!

Maybe the little plane icons on the ATC screens are a PNG hosted on some Cloudflare domain.

They laughed at my base64 encoded icons, now there, enjoy your downtime.

Not a safety-critical system but I know passenger information screens in at least some airports are just full-screen browsers displaying a SaaS-hosted webpage.

Fontawesome?

These days planes got problems with all kinds of clouds.

BBC reporting that the airport stated it was unrelated

That's odd. Why would you want to rely on Cloudflare for airport stuffs?

Annoyingly I wanted to fly a parcel from Edinburgh up to Stornoway, but it's looking like I'd be quicker driving the seven hours up to the ferry terminal myself.
