I don't agree. Radar would be nice but the controllers at Alice have managed very nicely without it.
The point I was trying to make is that they will have less forewarning than pre NAS, yet the argument for reducing the size of their patch, is to increase safety. Sorta out of sight out of mind!
I don't think any of the Alice controllers are happy about the changes either. Yet another example of what others on these fora have pointed out. Namely the Implementation Group haven't consulted any of the coal face professionals, or answered any concerns, other than to say our complaints are an industrial ploy or resistance to change.
