bad or absence of management

but what can we really expect from these officials of CAAP and MIAA. they know nothing about flying and what is takes to have a safe flight. i am so riled at the gall & temerity of this attorney-spokesman of the MIAA when he said in a press con that capt pena do not have the authority to say that VORs are requirements for the safe conduct of flights. capt has more than 20,000 airline flying hours which include times in the big airline jets. he is the president of ALPAP and a consultant of ICAO. he may not have the authority of a person in a government position but he certainly have the knowledge and experience on the matter. what about this joker-lawyers?

this is what happens when you put nincompoops in government positions. the only thing they can do is to wash their hands and put the blame to somebody. no sense of responsibility at all. in other countries, this kind of situation calls for the resignation of these officials. not to expect here in the phillipines. no sense of shame at all.

i hope that all foreign airlines cancel their flights to manila until at least a vor/dme is installed and calibrated. for us here in the philippines lets us observe the minima for day and night VFR as stated in our CAR. lets take care of our flights. nobody at CAAP and MIAA will.
