Peuce,

I was told that flightwatch VHF discrete frequencies will be partially decommissioned and partially transferred to ATC and they will be supplemented by ATC FIA frequencies to enable ATC to continue to provide FIS.

Thus the two flightwatch staff required to do the standalone VHF monday to friday will not be required but maybe more ATCs will be to take the flightwatch VHF off the busy ATC consoles? good plan??

CBA anyone?.....ANYONE!!!!!

But what about HF? is that coming to an ATC console too? From what I understand, most of the flightwatch work is done on 6 seperate domestic and international hf networks

Gees, that would be hillarious to watch the ATCs sep and "do" HF.....I'd like to see that.
