As a current military SATCO I have been following this thread carefully and recently I have been printing out some of the very informative reports that have been posted from those able to attend the CM in order to pass on the information to my controllers. Needless to say it is heartening to all that the Defence appear to be making some very valid points that will hopefully bring this to a successful end in the near future.
On the down side, I must also say that as a branch we are our own worst enemies sometimes. Why send the ATCEB to Leuchars at such a sensitive time for the personnel still there. Is it any surprise that the minds of controllers lay elsewhere last week and this week. Come on people, lets start giving ourselves a chance!
