Apparently not at the moment...maybe the game was called due to weather?

This is what Britain's foreign secretary William Hague have to say about this:

I am gravely concerned by the Syrian regime's action in shooting down a Turkish military plane on 22 June. When I spoke to Turkish Foreign Minister Davutoglu on 23 June, he told me that the plane had been shot down without warning.

This outrageous act underlines how far beyond accepted behaviour the Syrian regime has put itself and I condemn it wholeheartedly. My thoughts and sympathies are with the families and friends of the missing Turkish pilots. I have made clear to foreign minister Davutoglu the UK's strong support for the Turkish government at this difficult time.

The Assad regime should not make the mistake of believing that it can act with impunity. It will be held to account for its behaviour. The UK stands ready to pursue robust action at the United Nations security council.

This deplorable incident underlines the urgent need to find a solution to the current crisis in Syria in order to bring an end to the violence and to achieve a genuine political transition. We support the Joint UN and Arab League Special Envoy's continuing efforts on this.

I wonder what would UK do if Russian plane would enter their airspace.

Usually the RAF scramble jets to meet the unidentified plane and warn it, then escort it away, I'd imagine failure to comply with this would result in shot down. It used to happen quite often, nosey Russian long range bombers used to fly pretty close to UK airspace and the RAF would shadow them, I' don't remember them ever violating it properly though, although I could be wrong.

I've been a member of this site for a long time. Since 2005, and probably before that WW3 has just been around the corner. Why worry about something like this? Just enjoy your life and make everyday like its your last. Quit worrying about things that are beyond your control. All this worrying will kill you

LOL no i think the OP meant NEXT week. Its ALWAYS next week. LMAO!!!
