Anything less than that is simply not acceptable. The Commissariat risks several years of re-education camp if they do not get it right. Soon.\r\n\r\nOf particular concern to him seems to be that a (whisper this) Spanish company \u2013 Indra has joined the SESAR Joint Undertaking as a full member and is now part of this spiteful Public-Private partnership.\r\nThe alternative view, that perhaps the current system is not a perfect model of efficiency and well-being maximisation, gets no truck from our Miguel. Better to have the most expensive ATM in the world, inefficiently delivered, than the risk of customer focused, efficient innovative ATM.\r\nThe existing system delivers ATM like it is 1955 \u2013 VHF radio and radar included \u2013 but at least each controller has a chicken in every pot.\r\n\r\nWe shall watch the response of Commissioner Bul? with great interest.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The game is up.
