I have spent quite a lot of time in preparing this video on airspace.
I believe it has a message that we should at least do a costing for bringing the Class E airspace down to cover the approach – especially at airports that have ADS-B coverage and/or airline traffic.
I believe we have been lucky not to have had an airline accident in this 1930s style uncontrolled airspace.
For those who are interested, could I ask you to send an email to
[email protected] advising the Minister of your views – either supportive or not supportive.
Both CASA and Airservices have stonewalled the media on this issue. They just don’t comment, so the media can’t write a story.
Anyone who has flown in the US system would know just how well the Class E airspace works. It is not a 1930s system, it is a 2020 system.
Thanks in advance.
