Responses by ATC apologists are straight out of Utopia or Yes Minister. The hospital is empty but its the most efficient in the country.
Exactly. Meanwhile over in the USA New York La Guardia which has crossing runways, a curfew, moves more passengers and gets much worse weather than what Melbourne could imagine in 2017 had 369,135 movements vs 239,466 in Melbourne. That's more than 1.5 times the movements with the same runway configuration and a curfew!!! Now if that is what is actually possible why do we have so much congestion?
