So, they can't staff the seats or keep track of the a/c, however, experienced controllers are not required?
A colleague (ex- AsA controller) got a rejection letter last week after applying to go back (for family reasons). 15 years experience, much of it in busy places abroad, but he isn't suitable, he alleges, due to relevant experience and "cultural fit".
Obviously his "culture" of years of separating aeroplanes doesn't fit with whatever AsA is doing...........
