Captain Luddite,

Given that a road accident costs the community well over 1 million dollars per person. Given that the sectorisation, that is, the size of the sectors around Mangalore can already accomodate the implementation of Class E, there is already a one off 4 million cost to the community with zero benefit.

The costs of implementation are:
-Charts
-Controller Training
-Pilot Education
-HMI Upgrades

AND, staff the Groups the way they were meant to be. The sectors are already there.

I challenge you to tell the families of those killed that this country can't afford to implement solutions that would 100% prevented the MNG accident.

To my knowledge there has never been a mid air collision in controlled airspace in this country.

(I am Porter)
