Yep, great post
I can tell you from that one post ASA management has relaxed the rules, seen the error of becoming bigger than the industry we serve. Taken on a customer first mantra.
They've said pretty much verbatim 'listen boys, the customers aren't happy, pull your heads in a little & stop the frivolous reporting, from now on give'm what they want, we'll deal with ICAO, CASA, ATSB & FAA. Don't worry about any future audits, we've got your back'
We had a quick tool box meeting, I can tell you the mood was jubilant
the following shift, per controller, an average of 4 high speed descents issued, a couple of height requirements cancelled, no feeder fixes issued & we let all the IFR traffic sort themselves out.
We are looking forward to more respect from foreign crews now that we are the most relaxed ATC's in the world
thinking of having a barby with all you blokes around, besties from now on
