My understanding of the issue, from information I have gathered at our local AIT meetings is that the situation is getting worse. That appears to be caused by people who don't use the aids and the help that are available. No use of moving map, poor flight planning, not using a LARS, switching off transponders. If you have taken all reasonable care and still managed to make a mistake, you won't be castigated. However if you have taken a cavalier attitude then you most likely will. I simply want to be able to use the airspace I am allowed to in the best way possible because I enjoy it. I am none too happy when the amount I can use is likely to be reduced to give more protection to commercial aviation who pay the bills from people who threaten it.
