My point exactly Devilīs Advocate ! Most folks on this trheat seem to go on and on about ground radars and stop bars, but the fundamental issue is how ATC uses these tools.

In addition to ground radar, ALL air traffic controllers should have at their disposal; a training in situational awareness, standard frasiology and the drive to promoting a safe environment. In Italy however, most controllers simply do not seem to care about the points mentioned above.

Therefore, no matter how many ground radars airports wil install, safety will NOT improve unless Italian ATC will become more efficient and disiplined in using the tools/procedures already available and common in the rest of Europe !
