The aviation watchdog appointed on Friday (6 October) former Transport Focus chair Jeff Halliwell to lead the enquiry, which will focus on determining the causes of the incident on 28 August and its impact on consumers as well as Nats’ overall performance.
“We have appointed Jeff Halliwell, who will be supported by two further panel members, to bring a range of expertise to help determine and consider any recommendations to benefit both consumers and the wider aviation industry,” said CAA joint interim chief executive Rob Bishton.
