I wasn't intending to criticise the abilities of those who do DSA Radar, but effective use of ATSOCA really only comes with experience, as it is rarely if ever taught on any approved course, whether at CATC or any other college, so ideally it should be controllers with prior experience of ATSOCA who should be doing it. I've read one or two of the incident reports filed for DSA, and thought 'well why didn't they say/do xxx?'; but as I said, it all boils down to experience. Course I don't know what the radar coverage is like; is it still remoted from Waddington or somewhere?
