WHich do you think is better??? seriously!
What would be better is if the company that charges the highest route charge rates in Europe had the
systems in place to coordinate clearances and instructions between people sitting at adjacent consoles using that modern miracle of IT the local area network, like every cheaper ATS provider. But apparently it doesn't, so it relays a three-digit number safety critical number through two VHF AM comms links over hundreds of nautical miles with three error-prone people as decoders.
That's not
your fault it's NATS's, and galaxy flyer is not the first person to point out how pathetic it is... So let's move on.
