Hatton Cave? It's a bit like Haddon Cave (with or without hyphen!)
As I have said again and again, there is no agenda and I like many others want to help the VGS improve on the areas they fall short on - we all work for the same team!
Also, from others I have spoken to, what I have seen is no different to other VGS. It seems to be a common set of issues. That's why it's a systemic issue and why I keep bleating on about 2FTS looking at being the solution. I would like to offer that I'm not alone in this view.
Yes, there are mavericks at every airfield (not ones that fly F14s) and they are also made aware of the errors of their ways through audits, reports and the constant supervision from afar. I've seen this in a healthy, self-critical environment, however its when individuals are too defensive and unwilling to accept criticism and change that the alarm bells start to ring. Humbleness tends to allow aviators draw their pensions!
Anyway, here's wishing the VGS some safe flying soon and an improved existence under 2FTS.
