Philthy,
Your comment on B-A report has been on my lips, I remember the pasting it got, yet now these same people are saying yes it is E with culture(USA that is) and our pilots and ATC must be teught to apply it.
VoR nice to see your reasoned comments again, If USA applies E+(moves RPT away from radar detected VFR) how do you apply equality of risk between E Class with RADAR coverage and E Class without?
Surely lack of RADAR is removing an important line of defence in E Class therefore you move quicker to C class in non radar areas with similar traffic parameters.
Another question of personal interest: Is radar and its effective cover an imput parameter to FAA D Class tower analysis?
thx Mike
