Traffic separation vs traffic information
Maybe i'm in the wrong forum but...
Can someone tell me the practical difference between traffic separation and traffic information in terms of the service ATC provides.
Why am I confused? Take class A airspace for example.
IFR is separated from VFR but
VFR have only traffic information on other VFR yet...
a) both have the same restrictions in terms of airways clearance ie. you go where you are told and nowhere else and
b) they're not going to vector two VFR flights into each other (or let them fly into each other without taking action for that matter).
PS i'm in Australia
