Decisions

Tam has decided:
To buy the new software with prolonged warning (light and sound) to pilots when one TL is on forward and the other in REV. (US$5000.00)
to install in all A-320
Not to land in Congonhas with one reverser locked up

The Infraero is deciding:
The steel net
The grooving will finish on September 8
Congonhas no longer will be a rub
Less flights to Congonhas
Soft cement at the ends
Perhaps privatize some or all airports

The Minister of Defense
No longer talking about a new airport
Will divert Congonhas flights to Guarulhos and Campinas.
Will work on both these sirports to accomodate the traffic and passengers (the longer runway in Guarulhos is going to be reccaped)
Wants less passenger in the planes with more distance between the seats
Will talk with the controllers who want to be heard

The Air Force
I guess will continue to administer Air Traffic Control although there has been talks to make it civilian. Will receive more money from the Federal Government.

And so on...
