Hi Rage....tks 4 der input. I m still awaiting for reports from flyers about the SZB ATIS (127.6). It might help us to decide on the next course of action.
Your credit to the App Ctler is most welcome. I will pass on this praise to the guys working on sat 8pm. It's the "D" shift which also happens to be my shift
.
The point is, if HKG and SIN can provide good ATIS services, then we should be able too. It is a sickening feeling when pilots request for RWY in use at KLIA through SIN when u could already see them on your radar ( approx 50-60NM East of PK).Perhaps as what imdragon mentioned, u guys can help us in the field by highlighting this issue officially to DCA through MAPA. Maybe MAPA can also help to bring along one or two decision makers( from the DCA's Safety Management System chaps) to see and hear for themselves what u guys are talking about. At least this will get the ball rolling. Oh yeah...the only devil i m interested in is the Red Devil.
