Karoshi,

I go along with the Heathrow Director on this.

After 30+ years I have lost count of the times my skin (or rather Licence) has been saved by a good ATCA/ATSA. I started as one, in 1970, then we were treated as second class. I think we have moved on just a little since. Even the promotion process from ATCA to ATCO, then, was called Class to Class. That shows the amount of influence of the Masonic, ex military hierarchy we had to work under. Thankfully they are long gone. I know we still have problems and I fear the role of the ATSA will always be under estimated. But I for one, ( for what it's worth) appreciate all your efforts.

Mr G.
