Port Harcourt Traffic
Hi Owl 83 and SasLess
I will be the first one to admit that when we were single pilot at Shell, traffic was much light in Port Harcourt. Also, "Airwork" was the main ATC and the towers were an after thought. Prior to GPS the "zone in points" would have been a great idea. Some people would call a certain point in and not have a clue were they really were, until they popped out of a cloud ten miles or more from where they had just reported. With GPS there really is no excuse for inaccurate position reporting and the "zone in points" do concentrate the A/C in one little box. Still not a bad idea if the weather is not marginal? So you have a higher density of traffic, higher workloads on pilots, and a bigger ATC bureaucracy. That's more than enough to scare me into staying on the ground. GOOD LUCK and fly safe!!
