Gonzo.

I take your point. Usual comms hey?

It should have been mentioned (if only to assure you that adequate training will be given), but you really will only need a miniscule amount.

I know the transition from paper to screen (going off on a tangent here) is slightly daunting but of all the controllers I know, very few would return to paper. At the risk of infuriating some ATSA's now (of which some are massively underestimated/utilised), on the days when you get an unhelpful/moody/tired/disinterested one, delivery (in times of fog/delays etc etc etc) can be made a bigger nightmare than it already is. That goes out the window with EFPS. The task is simplified (as EFPS is meant to do).

I will emphasize now that I am not making this an anti-atsa thread or management/training bashing thread.

To emphasise my initial response... Should have been at least demo'd to you by now.

Ta Ta

PS Anyone operating EFPS Disagree? I know it's along way from perfection but would anyone go back? Personally found it easier after only a week or so of it being live.
