Spanador-yes it will be very interesting if the tower has to close again before tuesday and see who they blame.
It is also very conceivable that low level could shut thereby closing 75% of Irish airspace including cork , shannon and all the regionals.
It is also conceivable that the number of high level sectors could be restricted in the westbound flow causing big knock on delays across europe. Also the number of NAT tracks accepted by shannon in the eastbound flow could be restricted too .
In light of the above scenario anyone willing to take bets that they will cancel training at a moments notice and order peope back to OPS?. Of course they can't change the rostered hours at such short notice -just where you report to.
I am actually surprised that they are still going ahead with stripless. This is after the two major system failures in one day last week. But more importantly there was two this week . One of the occurences this week involved both radar screens in a suite going completely blank-nothing but light blue.
And they still want to take away the strips????????????
