During the ICAO audit of CAA it was found that 184 procedures across the country, were not maintained and had to be suspended until they had been revalidated.

....soooo, Poppy and her team failed yet another ICAO audit but she is been applauded - the audacity and stupidity of the CAA stunns me every time.

Does anyone know when (if) this approach, and all the other suspended approaches, will be re-certified? In my opinion, ATNS should be sued into the ground for this incompetence.

The ILS is working fine it's the approach procedure that has been suspended, the revalidated approach chart was presented to the CAA today, so we are hoping that the suspension should be lifted in the next three weeks.

I hear that the CAA has been taking many weeks to approve and then throwing them back for very minor paperwork issues
