Dick Smith as usual came across as the consumate know-all but stunned me when he suggested that Broome airport was only doing this to safeguard their profits - what a despicable comment from a desperate man trying all avenues to sidetrack the issues. It's a pity DS wasn't taken to task by the investigative journo. Congrats to Mike Caplehorn for standing up and showing a duty of care as an airport owner against what has been a snow-job on the pollies and the unknowledgable. The public has a right to know the implications in a fair and impartial way. One can but hope that CASA will fulfill its duty to consider this in a rational manner with the safety of the travelling public at the head of the list.
Hadagutful - you need to do some serious reading to get yourself up to speed. Previous writers have corrected you but if you are the level of support for Dick on this one, no wonder we're all grimacing.
