NOT JUST CONTROLLERS
QUOTE:They're thrust striaght into the deep end - as if a new ATC cadet in the UK has been put stright into the approach controller's position at London Centre instsead of working his/her way up from Norwich tower. It's not the controller's fault. Blame the system that put them there, and the managers whose main aim is to save money.
At the end of the day, you get what you pay for. In this case, safety is being compromised to fulfil a budget.
Sounds pretty much like new pilot recruits.
