I heard a rumour today that if there are not enough Manch ATCOS/ATSAS to staff PC then some of the task/airspace will be given to LACC. Also a substantial new AAVA deal will be given to PC staff to train and subsequently validate on the remaining Manch sectors.
I beleive the guys at Scottish dont insist on a two man P and E team all the time like Manch and this is seen as another bonus for management
The above is "
vital to ensure PC is fully operational"
