I agree with Dan Dare too. Air traffic control needs a rational valuation and it is not permitted to be superficial. To be alone during nightshift is unsafe because it is evident, there are a lot of medical studies about physiological loss of attention and Eurocontrol produced an important document about them, on 2006: "Managing Shiftwork in European ATM". I think it should be considered by all european ANSPs, and it is not so intelligent to undervalue them...Anyway we are diverting from main reason of this post. I would like just to know how many ATCOs are employed during nightshift, in european hubs....Thank you again!!!
