The only good things Britain has exported that I can recall is The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Top Gear and the Monty Python troupe and their derivative works.

Otherwise it is just all mad-cow disease and bad teeth.

Damn dude, didn't you notice the smiley there at the end of my sentence? Looks like someone woke up on the wrong side of the rock!

We humans have exported far more to Britain than they have exported to others, ok?

HA HA HA. It is a joke. Lighten up!

Every single country that has air travel to the U.S. has signed an agreement with the U.S. to allow that and has a set of protocols, standards, and enforcement mechanisms that the U.S. agrees are adequate as well as bilateral obligations between the two entities. And vice versa for countries with flights from the U.S. Until now the EU has performed this function for the U.K. As of Brexit, they no longer fall under the EU's protocols, standards, and enforcement mechanisms. Until the U.S. and the U.K., and Japan and the U.K., and Canada and the U.K..... and every other country that previously set up an agreement with the EU, does so with the U.K. they are not covered by any agreement to operate in those countries.
It is silly, 30 seconds after Brexit. It's silly 5 minutes and maybe even 5 days after Brexit. But what about 30 days, when things may or may not have changed in the U.K., who the fuck knows because there are no protocols or standards or enforcement mechanisms, no obligations, no obligations, no nothing.
The world is highly interconnected and it is able to be highly interconnected because of a huge web of bilateral and multilateral agreements between nations. No matter if you like that or not, its reality. I run a subsidiary in Canada from the U.S., and even in that I rely on a whole slew of agreements between the U.S. and Canada that allow me to operate there without having to obtain Canadian specific licenses, certifications, training.... If all those were to go away tomorrow it would have a huge impact on my small little operation, as will happen on a much greater scale with the no deal Brexit you all seem to be headed for. Again, I'm not trying to convince you of anything, this is simply reality.

And yes, if Brexit happened tomorrow aircraft originating in the U.K. would not be able to land in the Europe, or almost anywhere else until bilateral agreements had been arranged (it looks like they've already done so for the U.S.). Ryanair has formally warned investors of a “distinct possibility” that flights between the UK and the EU could be grounded from the moment of Brexit “for an unknown period of time”. I'm not making this shit up, it's the reality of how the world works.

Well then EU better hurry up and sign the agreement otherwise Ryanair from Ireland, the country that EU has used as the biggest bargaining chip to negotiate with UK won't be able to land and it would be all the businesses for British Airways. And the same thing goes for Air France, Lufthansa, Air Italia...

It's not in the EU's interest to enforce no flying between the UK and itself.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-46380463

Flights between the countries operate under the US-EU open skies treaty.

The deal with the US is one of nine bilateral air services arrangements secured by the UK to replace it.

The others are with Albania, Georgia, Iceland, Israel, Kosovo, Montenegro, Morocco and Switzerland.

Discussions with Canada are at an "advanced stage", according to the DfT.

You can discuss Brexit all day long relying on your emotions but markets talk instead of you. Just read it https://capital.com/brexit-50-50-take-advantage-of-brexit-volatility. There are no easy way in the Brexit deal. One thing joy me, I can make money even on falling markets.
