Security is not guarantee on Spain ATC
Please advise your airlines or operations department, this is not a threat, it´s a reality.
Spain Air traffic controller are working on ACC, APP and tower with a phisically gun aiming at their heads, they have been forced to sign a document where they are forced to be militarizied or face jail immediately, be judged under military rules for sedition . They are working under high stress and security is not guarantee.
This come from very close friends who are ATCO´s, today they already had some problems and as they tell me they can not guarantee it, they have told that to their labour union and military personnel present on towers, ACC and APP centers.
On my company we have decided not to overfly Spain ATC.
