Fadec, things are only going to get worse this year with regards to staffing levels.
No overtime only applies to ATCO staff, the only reason we've been able to carry on when things have been tight in the past is that both our assistant and lighting operator colleagues are offered overtime.
Airfield works....well, you want to know when they'll finish? Try 2010 when T5 is fully operational. All this WIP at the moment is all tied in with either the new tunnel from T2 to T5, our new tower over by T3, or resizing the taxiways for the A380. Apart from the works for our tower, the other bits will just start moving around the airfield.
