Hi

Yes they did. Thank you very much again, very interesting and informative as usual. Nice to meet you as well :ok:

Was in at EGCB yesterday evening - think you were on Appr, bit of a nightmare with all the thunderstorm activity ehh?!

Just a bit! I think the England team ended up in Liverpool! Some of the most concentrated Cb activity I've ever seen. Traffic was holding over Leeds, Sheffield, and Trent. All the normal holds were unusable. When the Cb's moved over the field, quite naturally, nobody wanted to make an approach.I was glad to get home, as I'm sure were the aircraft in it!

I know of two FISO airfields which were upgraded to ADC by SRG.

On behalf of eglk01 I asked ATSSD about this very recently. Answer: NO exemptions NOR dispensations. ADV from scratch only.

Pretty much the attitude i got when i put it in writing to the CAA, you either do the full course or stay a FISO, but very nicely written response which was different for the CAA.

Squadgy, all things taken in, the nats part was an example only i think the cost would be the same wherever you did the rating if you could.

RE UPDATE
 

Help!! Anybody out there? update anybody fancy a try at FISO? P/time?

BRDGS.

Guys,
(Off at a tangent!) Who actually trains FISO's? I have seen reference to them on the NATS site, but no more.
For future use, I am interested.;)

Rgds.

Qualified FISOs. At FISO units.

Most enlightening. Thanks!
