Guardian article 7 May(NATS)
According to The Guardian newspaper dated 7 May, our CEO Richard Everitt was " dissatisfied with the sevice's(NATS) operational performance on September 11th." He also stated that NATS emergency procedures needed to be improved and that he would be setting up a working group to improve those procedures.
Interesting, I thought everyone was of the opinion that we all bust a gut to provide the best service in very difficult circumstances on that dreadful day. Obviously I was wrong, what does Mr. Everitt know that we don't?

Heres a link.... http://www.guardian.co.uk/Archive/Ar...408357,00.html
Other interesting things are said as well, which pose questions such as 'Why aren't NATS going to have a contingency fund for exceptional circumstances?'

Apparently the CEO is horrified that he had been misquoted in the Guardian. An e-mail was circulated around LTCC today(Thursday) stating that the comments related to how NATS would be able to react to a "catastrophic" event, such as 11/9, on its' own facilities.
I suggest that Mr. Everitt writes to the Guardian to put the record straight.
