Thank you so much JimBall for explaining the allocation of shares within NATS. As a shareholder myself I am aware of the figures. My customers are the airlines, the airports to which we are contracted to provide an ATC service, and other airspace users who choose to avail themselves of air traffic services. The majority shareholders in the case of NATS do not provide its revenue, nor subsidise its costs. NATS' revenue comes from the Air Navigation Service charges paid by its commercial customers. Where did I suggest that the SVFR service was only subsidised by the Airline Group?
Please answer the question I posed in my last post about the allocation of resources.
The manpower available is sufficient, but no operation is immune from short notice intangibles like sickness.
