wiccan,
as I said before, I am an atc and I am spanish but I don't work in spain. Does anybody have any proof of all the things being said here? Now really...anyone? I'm not saying anyone in here is not telling the truth but I have the feeling it's all down to personal impressions -out of the thousands of pilots flying to spain we got 4 together w this bad impression and that's were all this starts...or is it actually true...but then there would be some hard evidence...somewhere. As I did on page 2 there's a link to EUROCONTROL's 2006 performance review and safety is not mentioned to be such an issue. Fair enough the report is not that detailed on that matter but is there any hard evidence?
To all,
no offence but I don't work in Spain and I don't fly there. I've read pilots saying it's good and pilots saying it's bad. Who can I trust? I see plenty f%&·ck ups almost on a daily basis from ANSP's considered to be top notch...or seen as top notch? Maybe they care more about
PR than others?
Who knows...I know I don't know for sure. And, hey, yeah sure you got in a tight situation that day or the other...I've seen 'em on my screen plenty and nobody is raising forums for it -for the record haven't been responsible for any incident(nor accident thank you) myself but involved as neighbour sector about 4 times, more or less-. So c0c5 ups happen...we learn from them...we move on to see another day and do our job better. Do they do it in Spain? I would hope so. Again few posters have actually been helpful and positive in trying to identify were all this really comes from -what actually may be the weakest links in the ATC chain-. Thanks to all that people.
C ya around. Safe flying.
