Re quote;

"Explore opportunities for charging for value-add services"

I remember from the 'old days' a letter from HO proposing -

'To Introduce a pricing regime to discourage participation...'

This was originally intended to apply to VFR flights submitting / cancelling SARTIMES by radio, as well as other 'ON AIR' requests...., as I remember.

But then the aim was to get rid of FSOs.

Discourage participation = less services = less staff.

Is this going to be another way of coping with less staff after the 20% cut???

Cheers
