Fine. You can pay. Who gave you the "unfettered right to the freeway" without paying a cent for it? You want a full-blown 24/7 radar approach service for Coffs so you can go Direct and not down the coast as sugegsted? You pay. 20 years ago, a console on TAAATS cost $1m per year, IIRC.

Absolute nonsense.
