Surferboy,
Whilst having sympathy with the Spanish situation, and wishing as most do, a satisfactory conclusion, I find it difficult to believe any professional ATCO can find a defence for the Ops room situation and scenario as shown within the video.
A 'toliet break' either from the Flight Deck, or from an operational ATC position is surely a 'controlled' break? The whole scenario shown is ANYTHING other than that type of situation. Whilst other posters may be extemeist in reaction, please don't fall down the same path and make unworthy comparisons else any constructive comment will be entirely wasted......
