BDiONU,
OK why don't you broaden your horizons.Half our traffic is generated inhouse and never goes near NAS,or whatever comes next.In fact it doesn't even go to our ACC,because we actually are the inhouse ACC for this traffic.
As it stands today,because I asked,there is no way to input this data into EFPS.The ATSAs are not going to be allowed to touch it.No-one can answer this question.
Fine if you say that it won't be brought in until it's safe.Perhaps that is why the O date has been brought forward,while people are still scratching their heads to try and make it work.
Currently it isn't fit and in the environment we work,I doubt if it ever will be.At best the way we operate will have to change for the worse,to work in with the shortcomings of the system.Hardly benefits the customer does it.
I haven't even started on the radar side.
I do have experience of state of the art computer systems,at a brand new airport the size of Heathrow,which were far more advanced than anything NATS has.
