Nice that vACC Switzerland was not contacted for this. As we will be online for the very busy Heathrow Event, plan some holding fuel for your group flight!

Hello Ramon,

We use judgment before contacting facilities. In the past certain facilities felt that they can't be bothered to be contacted when our traffic amount was not large enough (of course this is not directed towards vACC Switzerland).

Cheers,

...and if customers get greeted like this, they will probably not just "not contact" ATC-groups, but completely avoid those places and take their business somewhere else. Or have we reached the point in time where pilots need to ask ATC facilities for permission to use their airports??
