The rumour mill has it that the organisation of the whole project is about as polished and well though out as the Iraq conflict. i.e. a shambles.
Yes that really sums it up.
NSL as usual has tried to bring EFPS in on the cheap. It has not provided the correct resources i.e. an overbearing of valid controllers to release people to train but has managed to secure a few 'blip drivers'.
Whilst most people are reasonably happy with the twr/gnd side of things Approach is another matter. Quite a few of the LCE's believe that it is not fit for purpose and needs more work.
One final point.
I suspect that this would not have happened down south and correct resources (money) would have been more readily available!
