Scathing report on 'Skyguide'
The NZZ, Switzerlands most respected newspaper, has today published a report by the BAZL (Swiss CAA) that contains scathing criticism of 'Skyguide' - "the most expensive, incompetent, arrogant air traffic control organisation with the world's worst safety record" - as I said earlier in this thread.
It's almost entirely negative and uses extraordinarily severe language for the normally compromise-based Swiss establishment, such as:
'Complete chaos'
'Massive criticism'
'Severe negligence'
'Inefficient preparation'
'Miserable standard'
'Inadequate training'
'No confidence'
'No improvement initiative or culture'
'25 million Francs wasted'
The report concerns not only the planned and now indefinitely postponed upper airspace transfer but the entire organisation, management and culture.
Just another chapter in the miserable history of civil aviation in Switzerland over the past 10 years...
