✈️@mikeclancy1 on the importance of investing in air traffic control:
"The CAA have been right to resist pressure from airlines to lower costs even further. This would have led to less investment, fewer ATCs and a less resilient system with more delays for passengers."
Happy International Day of the Air Traffic Controller to all our members and colleagues in the U.K. and around the world. ✈️🛫🛩️🛬
Thank you for all the hard work you do!

This - “Mr O’Leary suggested that Nats “isn’t understaffed”, but employs many controllers who “just don’t show up to work.” - is an outrageous slur on @ProspectUnion@ATCOsBranch members, with no evidence. O’Leary should withdraw it and apologise. https://t.co/oFakWP9HLW
We remember all those who tragically lost their lives 22 years ago today, and we pay tribute to the aviation professionals who maintained the safety of the aviation system in incredibly difficult circumstances.
Report in to the failure of flight plan systems on 28th Aug published today.
We would like to thank all of our members and colleagues in @ProspectATSS who worked hard to manage and recover from this very rare failure. @ProspectUnion
