None of that applies to either Ballina, West Sydney Airport or Hamilton Island, two of which will be Class D
Geoff, as a former ATC (short term course 69) who subsequently enjoyed a career in IT/telco, I can assure you 1 second latency isn’t an issue, geographically diverse fibre back to the DC is easy and probably already in place. No way such a link would be internet based.
In fact the centre could be 300000km away and still be in spec.
Like others I do have concerns over execution though.
