Dick,

Why your obsession with Proserpine?

What about the 150+ seat jets that fly into AYQ (YAYE) without radar?

Radar would be lovely but unlikely. It's quite safe because we have a sound system in place. One where directed traffic is given.

The problems occur when you push your VFR no radio/don't talk system, so that we can't be reasonably sure we know where all the traffic is.

Sheesh.
