Triadic,
Not really, just having a bit of a rant about losing the A --- as I think you were alluding to, we were sold down the drain by Canberra --- the same mob who decided we didn't need WAAS/GBAS fifteen years ago, but now that it is virtually superseded by GPSIII etc, we are going tp get it
Indeed, you and I know how there have been various "explanations" of why we have VH not only for aircraft registrations, but where WT callsigns for Australia feature VH.
Not all that long ago, the EU proposed that all the traditions aircraft registrations as mentioned in the previous post would be dropped and a common register for all EU/EASA area aircraft.
Unlike most EU nonsense, it lasted about two minutes and ten seconds. The G, D,F, I etc stay.
Tootle pip!!
