If risk of danger in spanish airspace is increasing it might also be interesting for insurance companies which insures the planes, isn't it.
But that's not the point, just a side effect. The point is that non operational office staff with maybe not enough background understanding is in force to manage a highly diversified and complex airspace.
Who will take responsibility in case of an occurance caused by this mismanagement? Will AENA stay behind their office people? Or will the office people be the next to get blamed for an unlucky happening. I think those office people even do not know exactly what responsibilty they have right now, and what impact of their mismanagement it might have. Maybe somebody should tell them, should clarify this matter? It's not the Royal Decree-Law which should be targeted now, it's the people who execute it, try to convince them, they they are responsible for all their actions.
Next step would be new negotiations, and i think 1200 working hours per year is really like in heaven.
In Austria we got about 1650 hours per year but due to lack of personnel (thanks again to management failures in the past) we work a lot more(between 1950-2400 hours), some instructor hours not included, because it's called 'from spare time', but payed. So no wonder why our monthly salary sometimes doubles. 2007 and 2008 we even worked more.... on extra hours.
Without regulations in ACC it's not managable do keep a safe flow of traffic. ACC is in the poor situation that they are less people than some years ago. They can be lucky that the economic crises dropped also european air traffic flow.
The training offensive seems to fizzles out.
It's not as serious as in the US but still it will be a tough ride the next years.
So you say you work now without regulations, is that true??? No flow management implemented???? Did sector capacity increase? Or did your Management disobey all modern air traffic control flow tools and air traffic control procedures?
Spring and Summer will be funny in Spain.
