qcode,thank you for answering my initial questions. Of course, with out going into major specifics, could you perhaps expand a little on what you have found regarding procedures and their effect on human performance.
I'll try not to be as blunt as some of the others here, but I personally think the reason you have put a few noses out of joint is that you did admit you have no evidence to support any of the claims, yet you do give the impression of believing there is some "conspiracy" or whatever majorly covering up aviation incidents.
You do seem to be talking cross purposes when you say things like "I have no evidence, and as if the thread suggests because of the non reporting of the incident , then there will not be any". Sorry, but that makes no sense what so ever. What sounds like word of mouth, I think you have heard something, maybe even form this board. Several operational ATCers have given you answers and input that you are ignoring for what ever your reason is. I guess that is why there is the warning at the bottom of the pages regarding agendas. Maybe I will have to be blunt, but do you have another agenda, because questioning the saftey of people in the job on this internet forum isn't going to achieve anything.
