Can't wait for the next press statement post Strike notice letter being handed to them later today. I imagine they will throw all sorts at us.
Especially as they will want to muddy the waters even futher for joe public into thinking that we are over paid and under worked and indeed "Over staffed".
Simple equation
36 new controllers(50% more than planned) + 20 odd direct entry + ask back VER's + 1800 overtime duties in 2 stations in 2007 = NO STAFFING ISSUE.
Well handled IAA mismanagement
