@those who support kid speaking over the frequency > consider this > would you allow your kid to operate 10 ton truck if you were truck driver, or would you allow your kid to "have a taste of your job" if you were a male/female prostitute?
non-authorised personnel is not allowed to "work" in safety critical workplaces. Comparing ATCO trainee with 7 year-old child is immature. I hate to say this, but if the ATCO in question was realy sacked, it was with reason. Once we allow the safety standards to sink, we **** in our bowl. sorry.
