We are supposed to be the safest industry in the world. From what I'm reading from you flyboys and flygirls, alot more training needs to be given on handflying, fair enough. But we need to cater for the weakest links too, and to have no ILS and no PAPIs for that length of time is unacceptable. More handflying training and tighter regulation on how long you can have the landing aids o/o/s are needed IMO. Surely they could have found a way of installing the new ILS without having to take the old one out? Or use 28L for departures only and 28R for arrivals until the new ILS is up and running?
