Spare a thought for MACC ATSA's

[captainlj]

"Heres a radical solution!, there is or will be a surplus of ATSAs so instead of recruiting new staff from outside nats why not give the surplus ATSAs a go at becoming controllers if they so wish. They surely cannot do any worse than the existing students, after all controlling is hardly rocket science is it."


This is no radical solution, it's a realistic and dam right fantastic idea, and surely money saving for the company as we will now have to employ jumped up uni students who just fancy getting paid to do a job they have no interest in.

Most ATSA's have a huge interest in aviation(otherwise why would they put up with some ATCO's ) only joking.

But on the serious side, cant someone close to Mr Barron put this idea to him, it'd save a whole lot of upset when people get laid off, plus training could be cut shorter due to ATSA Air Traffic knowledge.


ATSA's get behind this!!


Just an idea, no doubt someone will kick the idea back in its place.
