<<NATS best practice to use degrees after every heading now>>
......which demeans CAP413's deliberate distinction between headings ending in zero and headings ending in 5.
Not the first time that a nats so-called 'best practice' has contravened CAA CAP standards. We had it before with millibars. I blame some of the self-exalted, elitist, macho-posturing, misguided, prima-donna local competence examiners who are clearly continuing to interfere with CAA operational standards. nats is merely yet another ANSP, not the Regulator/Auditor, and should rein them in. It is not nats' job to unilaterally change the CAP rules. CAA ATSD should put its foot down.
Just my few-penn'orth....
