Dick Smith fights tooth and nail to push through this airspace reform in spite of the deafening calls from most in the industry that it achieves nothing at a great cost to safety.
When it comes to bear exactly that fruit he blames the Air traffic controllers from whom he has taken the separation responsibility.
Dick you claim 21% reduction in near misses? OK. Well I claim a 2342% reduction in safety. How is my figure calculated? Well about as scientifically as yours. I believe it.
If you had any credibility left you just lost it.
My reaction is not limited to this forum. I will be challenging you at all levels available.
YOU are the threat to air safety in this country - everyone knows it - except one person.
