Over the past few months there have been a number of ATSOCAS threads. If you take the trouble to read them all, the one thing that stands out is that in spite of educational CD's, unit approved training plans, booklets, posters, and well-meaning LCE's, the result is confusion, cynicism and mistrust. There are some PPRuNers who confidently profess to have got the new system hacked, but analysis of their posts demonstrates that they, or their respective units, all have differing interpretations of the rules, and Duty of Care. What a c*ck up
All I can say is that I'm glad I'm not in UK, and I wish you all the very best of luck on the 12th.
