Folks,
Exactly, as I have already asked ----- with no answer: "What is the problem, to which this is the answer".

Sadly, with ever diminishing GA, and CASA starting to get its micro-management sticky fingers into RAOz/GFA/AWAL/etc., (all in the interests of safety, you understand) the potential collision risk is diminishing daily, the answer to "traffic information" is increasingly not just "No known traffic" but "what traffic".

A few places I was at in central Queensland, a few months back, there was NO traffic, not a light aircraft movement to be seen.

A few days in Longreach, apart from RPT, and one bankrunner per day, I was staying close to the airfield, the sound of engines??? Near as nil as makes no difference.

Tootle pip!!
