I think Airservices are jumping up and down and saying ADS-B is the way to go - in the best possible way they can when you consider they are fighting a legal case (using your money), against being sued by a close mate of the rodent, who also happens to be a twice failed CASA chairman, who is also directing (via the Minister) the same Airservices to install uneconomic radars because that same Airservices called his bluff and told him he was an unsafe fool.

Confused? Welcome to the result of Airspace mis-management over the past 8 1/2 years - with three more now to perfect the recipe.

Of course the government in some guise or another will have to fund it - perhaps you should ask, why didn't the minister 'direct' such a thing to occur instead of appeasing 'some dick' prior to October 9?

It's a good thing my interest rates won't be going up - that gave me a real scare!
