Gerry. Glad you mentioned MDX.

In that case the pilot was never able to communicate to a person with a radar screen that could have informed him in a timely fashion that he was heading at right angles to his desired direction.

Most importantly despite the expensive BASI investigation not at any time did they make a recommendation that direct access to radar be given to all pilots in radar coverage.

I had to bring that in about a decade later despite resistance from pilots like Bloggs.

This shows the resistance to copying the best from leading aviation countries.

On another thread you will see Mr Bloggs concerns about updating Ballina to class E. It was similar resistance to copying the best that resulted in this un affordable ADSB mandate.

See. Got back onto the thread message! Just.
