Are you missing your right base at VMMC?
SuzieWong, up until your post, I was ready to concede that the new generation of controllers which you unquestionably belong to had had a flawless training for such a demanding professional activity. Unfortunately, you have just ruined everything with this single comment. You’ve shown us all how flawed your training was by not realising what the “right base at VMMC” or any other shortcut, for that matter, means to an airline in the long run. In the old days it was a sure thing, we didn’t even have to ask, it was given any time the conditions permitted. Presently, it is totally out of the question even thinking about asking for it and I stopped requesting it the moment I noticed that new accent in the frequency. You know, I understand it’s a tough job being a good professional in this environment, and the more I think about it, the more respect and admiration I have for the older generation that was sitting where you are now. They were top professionals, but with a touch (the right amount) of charm. And that, I can assure you, is even tougher. Finally, I suggest you read again what

Best regards, nice talking to you too…
