I have to say, as an ATCO of many years I found that summary really awesome. Either On the Beach is a little bitter about his work or he has a brill sense of humour and writing talent. I love my job at a fairly busy international airport but I have to admit I can relate to some of the summaries statements. Reference pilots never saying thanks though, they often do where I work even though we have done nothing more than what we get paid for. I do say things like "standby" when someone rings for one of my kids or the wife. Great post
