1. Read the post before critisizing [sp]
I would like to hear you explain to those pilots why a controller that failed to validate any kind of ATC license can still be guiding them around the sky.
What
was said
At many minor aerodromes you get a fairly high percentage of people who were unsuccesful in their training when it came to NATS - the UKs main ATC provider for larger airports and area control. Now these people have validated to the satisfaction of SRG, but at what is deemed to be a minor aerodrome.
ergo, They ARE valid ATCOS. Perhaps there was a "land after" clearance, and the landing a/c made a mistake.....it HAS been known
However, a very important point IMHO has been missed...."
OPEN REPORTING".
Any ATC/FDC
errors/mistakes/cock-ups are MOR'd...and "Action is [seen] to be taken" to alleiviate the [raised] "problem". My question is this
"If a Spanish ATCO, witnesses, or makes a mistake, file [
without predjudice] a report?" as happens in the UK
