Okay the wind conditions at HER might have been bad luck for the ATR, but still this story about using the autoland feature at Thessaloniki on a CAT-I ILS is freightening. I agree however that OAL has had its incidents too.
I guess a part of the responsibility is with HCAA as well, controllers using non-standard phraseology, partially not understanding non-standard requests by pilots, still talking lots of Greek on the radio when foreign pilots are on the frequency, not informing about dangerous weather conditions reported by previous aircraft or putting them on the ATIS, badly designed SIDs and STARs at least for the busy perpipheral airports, bad SIDs and procedures with respect to noise abatement, and so on and so forth......
those are all things that can be fixed with practically no cost
HCAA is in the same state as the rest of the country......
Anyway, does anybody know what happend in Santorini, still no answer on that one.
