In my opinion, JH would be the first to admit he's got quite a job ahead of him, the damage has been done, primarily by AF, then exacerbated by KM.

From today's Crikey

So has Qantas said please explain? Or has the concept of 3 or 4 sickies been accepted? Perth has one rostered approach ATC on night shift; you do the math, how many called in sick?

Missed something?

Well, maybe "licencing and aerodromes" didn't run their responses, to individuals and ASA, through corporate lawyers at CASA and the sh!t is about to stick; then again that could be pure scuttle-butt.
