the FS system still exists
Traffic to IFR in G. EVERYTHING else is long gone.
and the operators are also qualified ATCs who can in the same shift operate a control sector.
Which is their primary responsibility, not looking after traffic in G
Mangalore should change all
Ironic that when FS were responsible for traffic OCTA (and Mangaglore was f*cking busy with IFR traning back then) there wasn't a mid air, but now that the poor bloody ATC is expected to do everything, and radar/atsb coverage is the be all and end all, one happens.
