Just found out that lil johnny airplane is using the callsing ASY1 (Ausy one). Dont mind the ASY part as that is the correct ICAO designator for a RAAF aircraft on an international flight, but number ONE???? If we use the American precedent then the suffix one to a callsign is for a) the head of state, and/or b) the commander in chief, which George doubleu is, but lil johnny isnt.
Last time I checked it is the Governer General who is Australia's Head of State and Commander in Chief not the Prime Minister, so if anyone has the right to use the callsign ASY1 it is the Governer General not lil johnny.
<rant mode on> BTW I readily admit I have no respect for this man as being ex-military and now in the aviation industry I have first hand knowledge how this person has shamelessly used the military for his own political gain and his deputy is now refusing to bite the bullet and actually take charge and do something about NAS. <rant mode off>
Thank you for your patience, it has been good to get this off my chest.
