Perhaps you would like to find a reference in ANY global documentation that identifies a requirement for radar in Class E airspace. It is not a pre-requisite, and Class E - in fact Class A, B, C, D E, F and G can - and are - be operated satisfactorily with or without radar coverage.
I never said that it was a legal requirement. As a matter of fact I even said that "Just because all the legal requirements have been met, doesn't make it safe."
Insofar as "failing air law"... I don't think so.
My opinion is that it is YOUR, and your cronies', narrowmindedness, and bullheaded approach to these reasonable questions that make it seem as if you have "blinkers" on. You see what you want to see... you hear what you want to hear, and you will brook NO argument
Maybe I should phone DICK himself? after all, his numbers are listed in the AUSTRALIAN FLYING MAGAZINE, which by the way is becoming a MOUTHPIECE for the NAS. Very disappointed that a magazine with journalists of that calibre need to express themselves in THAT kind of fora!
