Re: Air traffic control service skeyes to strike in the evenings and nights of 12 & 13 March

In that case, I should think traffic could directly enter their TMA from Dutch airspace, never needing Brussels ACC anayway? The TMA is controlled by Liege Approach, right? Indeed TMA is controlled by Liege Approach. But neighboring dutch airspace (Maastricht TMA) is not available at night, Maastri...

Re: Air traffic control service skeyes to strike in the evening and night of 12 March

Actually, if EBLG wants to get cargo during the night, then they should have their own ATC and no rely on Federal Skeyes for APP, TWR and GND... APP, TWR and GND were available all night long at LGG last night ! Still they rely on Brussels ACC to feed them ! And that's where the problem was last ni...

Re: Air traffic control service skeyes to strike in the evening and night of 12 March

IF it be true that they are striking while negotiations are going along (as I read in certain media) THEN they are really going a bridge too far. @André, I must allow it is difficult to not become cynical facing this unfortunate story. Of course, the term "negociations" might have differe...

Looks like a wise decision to me !

I thought there was a back-up procedure (called "business continuity" I heard) to allow traffic from/to regional airports (LGG, CRL, OST, ANR) when Air Traffic Services were not available at Brussels ACC/APP ! This procedure was established following the big ATS black-out in May 2015. The...
