Cool

Well all the posts on CASA doing something at last to protect all concerned around the BH area is to be applauded, must say it is about time! why do these people not move to a more isolated area that traffic will not interfere with (for there own safety as well) I seem to remember that a Geelong Club was in the Meredith area for many years without any noted trouble? suppose the dollar grab is better than safety though? Do think this is only a temporary fix as they started in this area obeying all rules just to get a foot in the door and then anarchy reined supreme, but the department may now have it in hand as they are tigers once they too get the bit by the teeth.
Sounds as though by Qnim it is still about to become a bit more safe, well that can only be a great step forward for all concerned.
I notice in the local paper that the DZ operator is bemoaning the fact he is losing 10 thousand dollars a DAY? MM! sure is not about money hey? he states that he has never had an accident here but as we all know that is just pure luck on his part as the more cloud dropping can only cause the chances of it happening.
If his figure of $10,000 a day can be believed can you imagine the amount of drops this is and the concerns that the average Joe are about the safety of all other persons flying in and around this place?
