By now everyone who works for NATS should have had a briefing on this new golden dawn.
It's the next big thing.

I am not fishing, I have put my rod away for December!!!
A possible consolation prize for NATS, I hear that the Aberporth & Ranges contract is to be renewed by QinetiQ. Hard luck Safeskys, coming back for more in seven years time? Enjoy Llanbedr!

My post #9 on the Llanbedr Airfield thread indicates how successful QQ have been to date with that current pie (unmanned of course) in the sky.
At least NATS have kept the Ranges contract, with West Wales Airport Watchkeeper UAVs apparently providing most of their current and foreseeable future business.

I think that the writer was passing you a greeting, no need for the sarcasm.

Thought this thread was about NATS losing the Gatwick contract...
Haven't had any proper debate or update on the actual topic at hand for a while

Things are going to get very interesting over the next year or so.

NATS Lose Gatwick Contract (Split thread)
It will be very interesting indeed. Although, I believe the cost reductions will be mostly coming from support services rather than the operational side of things. All part of the contract price though.

The bit of the email that surprised me was the mentioning of new T&Cs.
New T&Cs never easy to get through but NATS management must be encouraged by the lack of fight shown by the staff when they rushed through the last pension scheme changes.

But the pension scheme change were on a 'you keep yours, we're asking you to shaft the new guy'
Might be a bit different if people are asked to change their T&Cs. Since recruitment is all but frozen I can't see much point in changing T&Cs just for new starters.
