Hey Guns - nothing wrong with ZSCAR

They were calibrating last week when the ILS went womky and they (CAA) turned it off - safety factors involved.

We have asked ACSA to order the parts since last August and they did not want to spend the money - now they are goint to spend money as some of the parts they ordered are wrong. They still have not managed to find the fault - now they are going further into it and it is going to cost megabcks to fix - then it has to be re-commissioned and that is going to take ages.

So when winter comes to Cape Town brings lots of fuel and get ready for flow management - and dont blame us - blame ACSA


Regards

ps ACSA stands for ASSOCIATION OF COMPLETELY STUPID ":MAD:"HOLES
